Note: The Wrangler body armor has been designed to fit tightly to the contours of the vehicle. Instructions
must be followed to insure the correct placement and adhesion of this part. If surface is not cleaned
and prepped as stated in the instructions proper fitment will not take place. Do Not install if outside
temperature is below 65F. or over 100F. Allow part to sit overnight before driving.
Step12: Before installing license plate holder cut off the two locating
tabs from the back side of the holder (pic.11). Trim flush to
the back side of holder (pic.12). When complete connect
lamp wire harness and bolt back to vehicle using the 8mm
screws removed in step 6.
Step9: With the Rear Armor removed from the vehicle peel back
2" of the outer edge protective covers at 45 deg. angles. All
inner protective covers should be removed (pic.9).

Step10: Place Rear Corner Armor back over rear taillight being careful
not to touch the body with the exposed 3M tape. With the
Corner Armor aligned to the fill neck opening affix sections of
exposed tape making sure that the cover is flush. Double
check to the vehicles body contours. When positioned
correctly apply pressure working from the filler neck around
rear corner to tailgate.
Step11: Pull protective covering from behind cover. DO NOT apply
pressure to the cover until all protective strips have been
removed. Check fitment one more time before applying
pressure to the remaining tape sections (pic.10).

Step13: In some cases the rear bumper may need to be removed.
This will allow access to the lower license plate holder screws.
Loosen and remove the two bolts located on the side of the
frame just behind the rear tire. A 5/8" wrench or socket can
be used if you do not have 16mm equivalent. Repeat for the
other side of the frame (pic.13). Loosen and remove the
upper bolts located above the rear cross member. They are
located just inbound of the frame (pic.14).
Step14: Bumper should pull back and off vehicle. After corner armor
has been attached and the license plate holder secured
