Outback RCPR03 Installation

INSTALLATION OF 'OUTBACK' ROOF CONSOLE
PRADO 120 series 02/03 – 09/09
Failure to connect coloured wiring correctly and tape up all connections as described in following
instructions will result in an electrical short and void console warranty.
For this installation you will need a hand held Phillips screwdriver, short Phillips screwdriver, electric or
battery drill, 'stubby' 3.5mm drill bit, steel ruler and insulation tape.
VEHICLE PREPARATION:
Swing Sun Visors around to side and lay flat to roof for ease of installation.
Remove map light assembly. To do this, slide a steel ruler up under front edge of light surround (front edge
facing windscreen). Lever map light assembly downwards slightly; grip with fingers and pull down out of
holding clips. Remove interior light in the same fashion; put both in a safe place for refit upon sale of vehicle.
Rear Fixing Plate Installation: Insert 'stubby' 3.5mm drill bit into electric or battery drill ensuring only
20mm of drill bit protrudes from chuck. From where you have removed the interior light carefully drill a hole
centrally in one of the 'ears' located in the roof support frame (see Fig. A below). Using a hand held Phillips
screw driver fix Fastening Plate to drilled hole with a 10# x 10mm self tapping screw ensuring captive nut
points downwards. Now carefully drill through other hole in plate and fasten using remaining 10# x 10mm
screw. Press fit 14mm plastic spacer over captive nut (see Fig. B below).
Fasten Rear Fixing Plate through the marked hole into Fastening Plate
using 6mm x 20mm round head bolt ensuring captive nuts are to front of
vehicle and point down.
Front Mounting Bracket Installation: Hold Front Mounting
Bracket hard forward against front of hole in hood lining (from
where you removed map lights) and up against metal inner skin of
roof frame. Ensure captive nuts are to rear of vehicle and use same
3.5mm drill bit with only 20mm protruding and carefully drill through
one hole in bracket at 45 degrees to the hole. Note: Drill through
first and second inner skins at these points. Fasten bracket to
drilled hole using hand held phillips screw driver and one of the
10# x 20mm pan head screws. Drill through the other hole in the
same manner; fasten using other 10# x 20mm pan head screw.
