EXTRA TOOLS NEEDED:

1/8” or similar Drill Bit
2.
uni-bit to enlarge 1/8” pilot holes to 7/16”
YOU WILL NEED
A 7/16” DEEP SOCKET TO INSTALL FLANGE LOCK NUTS
1. REMOVE TRUNK LINER! Open the trunk and place a protective cover
inside the trunk to capture any metal shavings.
2. Close trunk. Starting on the drivers’ side, measure down 12” from the front
corner of the trunk lid where it meets the window glass and make a mark. See Diagram A on back of sheet. Repeat on passenger side.
3. Starting on the drivers’ side, line up the DRIVERS’
SIDE TEMPLATE, provided, with the edge of the trunk at the 12” mark. See Diagram B on back of sheet. IMPORTANT! See Diagram C on back of sheet as to where to line up opposite
end of template. Repeat procedure
on passenger side using PASSENGER SIDE TEMPLATE.
4. Drill a 1/8” or similar pilot hole through the top panel of
the deck lid at the exact center of each spot indicated on template.
5. Using a uni-bit (NOTE: we suggest using a uni-bit
for a cleaner cut) open the four (4) 1/8” pilot holes to 3/8”.
6. Set the Sportwing® on the trunk lid and align the
two (2) THREADED BOLTS through the center holes in the trunk lid. Proper clearance must be maintained to avoid
any bolts from binding with the trunk lid.
Locate the Sportwing® on the trunk lid and check hole
alignments before installing to insure that the ¼” - 20 FLANGE LOCK NUTS can
easily thread without forcing them.
7. Remove the Sportwing® and apply zinc chromate
primer or touch up paint on the edges of the four (4) holes that you drilled in
the trunk lid.
8. See Diagram D on back of sheet. Place the four (4) ROUND TAPE GASKETS,
provided, as shown in Diagram D on back of sheet, centered over the four
(4) holes that you made in the deck lid in Step #5 (NOTE: use the two
(2) SMALLER GASKETS for the drivers’ side outer most 3/8” hole and passenger
side outer most 3/8” hole).
9. Open the trunk.
First, install ¼ - 20 x ½” FLANGE LOCK NUTS with FLAT WASHERS, provided,
on the two (2) inside holes (threaded bolts) using nut driver or ratchet
with 7/16” socket, making sure FLANGE NUT does not fall between panels. A piece of tape in socket is helpful in
holding FLANGE NUT in place until started.
Loosely tighten both FLANGE NUTS.
10. Next, using ½” MACHINE SCREW and FLAT WASHER, provided,
loosely tighten using Phillips screw driver.
After all four (4) fasteners have been started, tighten evenly. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
11. Replace trunk cover from the inside of trunk. Clean up any metal shavings that might have
fallen into the trunk and you are done.
