edge of the vehicle body,
check underneath for
wiring for the rear lights. Pull the wiring out of the

This step will require two people.
Locate the left and right Bow Assemblies in the parts
kit. Select one of the assemblies and lay the assem-

Assembly Mount Bracket on the 15 1/2 inch mark.
Using the Bow Mounting Bracket as a template,
center punch and drill a 3/16" hole. Secure the front
hole of the Bow Assembly Mount Bracket with a #14
Sheet Metal Screw. Lift up the Bow Assembly and,
again, using the Bow Assembly Mounting Bracket as
a template, mark, center punch and drill a 3/16 inch
hole for the rear of the bracket. Secure the rear hole
with a #14 Sheet Metal Screw. Repeat this proce-
dure on the opposite side of the vehicle. Lay the
Bow Assemblies down onto the body and connect
the Bow Halves together with the Bow Couplers.
Slide the foam sleeves on the front bow to the cen-
ter of the Bow Coupler on the front Bow Assembly.
