Installation recommendation

Before installation:

• Compare the clip profile and stud dimensions with the original fastener
• Check the plastic for cracks, brittleness or deformation
• Clean the channel on the rear of the moulding
• Remove old broken clips and debris
• Slide the clip carefully into the moulding channel
• Align the threaded stud with the corresponding body opening
