SLIDING ROOF HOUSING INSTALLATION

Install the sliding roof weatherstrip as described below.

1. Attach each corner of the weatherstrip so that each weatherstrip mark is aligned with the sliding roof glass center mark. After attaching the entire weatherstrip, check that all weatherstrip marks are within the sliding roof glass end marks.

2. Make sure the weatherstrip cutout is toward the rear side of the vehicle and centered.

3. Make sure the weatherstrip is securely installed as shown in the illustration.
