PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION

1. Starting on the drivers’ side, measure 13 ½” from the tip of the deck lid where it meets the rear window, back towards the rear of the car and place a mark with a grease pencil. See Diagram A on back of sheet for measurement. Repeat on passenger side.

2. Leaving paper liner on bottom of mounting feet of Sportwing^®, place the Sportwing^® on the marks made in Step #1 so that as you face the rear of the car, the front tips of the Sportwing^® rests on these marks. See Diagram A on back of sheet. Next, center the Sportwing^® from left to right. Outline all three mounting feet with a grease pencil.

3. Set the Sportwing^® aside and place the smaller template, provided, on the center post outline made in Step #2. Using a 5/32” drill bit, drill pilot hole through the spot indicated on the template for center fastening hole.

4. Next, place the larger template, provided, on the passenger side outline made in Step #2. Using 5/32” drill bit, drill through the three spots on passenger side template. Two will be for fastening Sportwing^®, the other spot on the template will be for harness wires of the Sportwing^® (NOTE: when drilling fastening holes, you will need to drill through both panels of the deck lid. When drilling through the secondary panel, hold deck lid slightly open so you do not drill into the rain channel of the trunk). Open deck lid and enlarge the pilot holes in secondary panel only to 5/8” using a 5/8” hole saw. This will give you access for your socket wrench later. Black hole caps have been provided upon finishing. Next, close the trunk. You will need to open up the 5/32” harness pilot hole that you made on passenger side to 3/8” (NOTE: we suggest using a uni-bit for a cleaner cut). Flip template over for drivers’ side. Only using the two fastening holes on template, the harness hole is not needed on drivers’ side.

5. Close the trunk and remove the paper liner from the bottom of all three mounting feet. Feed the brake light wires through the harness hole made in Step #4 (NOTE: be careful not to crimp the brake light wires as you position the Sportwing^® back onto the outline marks made in Step #2). Press firmly into place.

6. Open the trunk and switch back to the 5/32” drill bit. Drill up into the bottom of the mounting feet using the five mounting holes drilled in Step #3 and #4 two on each side and one center post (NOTE: when drilling, we insist using a drill stopper to prevent from drilling up through the top of the Sportwing^®). Install mounting screws with lock washers using a ratchet with 5/16” socket and tighten firmly. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Use black hole caps, provided, to cover holes in secondary panel.

7. WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR 2000 – 2001 MODELS:
Run the brake light wires down towards the passenger side trunk hinge. Insert the brake light wires inside the ¼” wire harness, provided and using black electrical tape, tape the harness neatly along side the factory harness that runs along the trunk hinge (NOTE: leave enough slack to allow opening and closing of the deck lid). Slightly pull down the trunk cover that covers the third brake light in the rear window. Remove the three plugs that hold it in place. Run the Sportwing^® wires toward the third brake light using the electrical connectors, provided. Connect the red (hot) wire of the Sportwing^® to the red wire with green stripe of third brake light. Next, connect the black (ground) wire to the black wire. Check your connections by stepping on the brake pedal.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR 2002 – 2006 MODELS:
Run the brake light wires towards the passenger side trunk hinge. Insert the brake light wires inside the ¼” wire harness, provided, and using black electrical tape, tape the harness neatly along side the factory harness that runs along the trunk hinge (NOTE: leave enough slack to allow opening and closing of the deck lid). Enter inside vehicle rear seat and pry the plastic cover that covers the third brake light off, cover comes off easily. Then, disconnect plug from third brake light as shown in Diagram B below. Notice when you pull cover off, there will be an opening on each side of inner panel of third brake light housing. Any one of these two openings is where you will pull the harness wire of the Sportwing^® from inside the trunk. See Diagram B below. After running wires along passenger side trunk hinge, run the Sportwing^® harness wires toward the third brake light in rear window and notice a small hole opening just under third brake light. See Diagram C below. Fish the harness wires through this hole up towards the hole in secondary panel of third brake light housing. See Diagram B below. Next, using connectors provided, connect the red (hot) wire of the Sportwing^® to the green wire with red stripe. Next, connect the black (ground) wire of the Sportwing^® to the black wire. Check connections by stepping on the brake pedal. Replace cover over third brake light.

8. Clean up any metal shavings that may have fallen into the trunk. If you have any questions, problems or if you would like information about other quality Sportwing products, please call the TOLL FREE number at the top of this sheet. Thank you for choosing Dawn Enterprises Inc.
