with a black plastic push in fastener to a steel bracket just behind the aluminum
A/C line. Pull this harness loose and force it down out of the way. (SEE
PICTURE #2) Pull the aluminum A/C line loose at the same type of black plastic
fastener and leave unattached for a moment. (SEE PICTURE #3) Reroute the
hood release cable so that it will run under the fuse box and just past the exposed
wire harness fastener at the location of the hole. (SEE PICTURE #4) The
aluminum A/C line is relatively soft and with a little force it will allow you to
reform the line to the wire harness fastener hole. (SEE PICTURE #5) Tweak the
line so that it sits nice and vertical and set the A/C lines black plastic fastener into
the wire harness fastener hole.(SEE PICTURE #6)


4. Now that the cable and A/C line has been relocated you may place the fender liner

in position to check the fit and also to get acquainted with just how it is to be set
in place. You will notice that the liner is shaped in such a way that it will fit in
over one of the fuse box bolt studs exposed earlier and also allow the new
position of the A/C lines service port and sensor to fit thru the two holes in the
liner and almost seat itself to its correct position. (SEE PICTURES #7,#8)
However it is very crucial that the very most front part of the liner sits perfectly
against the inner fender wall. NOTE: If the liner is set to low it will fit over the
inner fender out crop and cause a gap that will create a clearance problem
between the fender liner and hood shock prop. So it is important that you look
very closely at its position before permanently attaching it.(SEE PICTURES
#9,#10)


5. Now that you have studied the placement of the liner, permanent attachment is

very easy. Simply fold over a small length of the red release liner from the back
of the part so that you will be able to pull it off as you hold the part in position.
(SEE PICTURE#11) Making sure that the front of the liner is correctly in place
pull the remaining red release tape as you press firmly to set the stainless liner to
the factory inner fender. Once installed reattach the factory fuse box at all three
locations. (SEE PICTURE#12)


6. The next part to install is the long narrow fender liner cap cover. In order to install

this apply some of the adhesive promoter provided over these two fender mount
locations.


7. Place the cap cover in position so that the small notch aligns with the notch in the

factory inner fender.(SEE PICTURE#13) It is important that these cap covers sit
very tightly to the inner fender rubber gasket in order to achieve adequate
clearances between the cap cover and hood when closed. (SEE PICTURES
#14,#15) With this in mind simply fold over a small section of the red release
liner from the underside of the cap cover and set in place. Holding the cover
