Installing the flyscreen
The flyscreen must be screwed directly to the sheet-metal bodywork at
the top and not just on the panelling or the interior fittings. It is usually suf-
ficient to screw it on to the base of the interior fittings.
➤ Measure the installation opening in your vehicle and check whether the
dimensions of the flyscreen fit your vehicle.
Trimming the opening (depending on the vehicle)
➤ If necessary, remove add-on parts that interfere (such as bottom end
strips or bodywork) in the installation opening.
To be able to install the skirting board (fig. 1 1, page 3) flush, you may need
to trim the existing fixtures (such as floors or cabinets).
➤ Mark the following (fig. 2, page 3):
– Size A = 18 mm (width of the bottom part of the skirting board), meas-
ured from the edge of the sheet-metal bodywork
– Size B = 3 mm (height of the skirting board).
➤ If necessary, trim the existing fixtures with a suitable tool, such as an
oscillating saw.
➤ Smooth and clean the cut edges.

Pre-installing the rails
Cassette profile, skirting board and upper guide rail
The cassette profile, skirting board and upper guide rail must be assembled
lying on the ground (fig. 3, page 4) before being placed in the vehicle.
➤ Check whether the cover profile can be inserted between the C pillar and
interior fittings. You may need to adapt the contour by trimming.
➤ Guide the lower slider of the handle strip along with the cassette profile
into the skirting board.
➤ Pull the cassette and handle strip apart by a bit and then slide the cassette
profile onto the nose on the skirting board.
➤ Secure the cassette profile with the screw (M5 x 30 mm) and M5 nut on
the upper guide rail.
➤ Insert the cover for the C pillar into the cassette so that the drill holes are
located one above the other and secure the two components with three
blind rivets (4 x 8 mm with stainless steel mandrel) without riveting them
(fig. 4, page 4).
