INSTALLATION POINT
Before temporarily installing the new parts, apply body sealer to the reinforcement, side impact protection beam and backside of the new parts.
Note
Do not close the drain hole.
Tech Tips
Apply sealer evenly about 10 mm (0.39 in.) from the flange and 3 mm (0.12 in.) in diameter on the outer panel and apply just enough sealer for the reinforcement and side impact protection beam to make contact.
Bend the flange hem with a wooden hammer and dolly.
Tech Tips
Bend the panel gradually so as not to distort it.
After welding, apply body sealer to the corresponding parts. (See the painting / coating)
After applying the top coat, apply anti-rust agent to the internal panel portion of the closed section structural weld points.
