***SEE DIAGRAMS ON BACK OF SHEET***

1. Open the trunk and remove the trunk liner from the underside of the trunk lid. Along the drivers’ side, measure

9 – 3/8” from the tip of the trunk lid where it meets the rear glass back toward the rear of the car and place a mark with a grease pencil. Repeat procedure on other side. See Diagram A on back of sheet.

2. Leaving paper liner on bottom of mounting feet, 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. Center the Sportwing^® from left to right along the marks made in Step #1. Using a grease pencil, outline both mounting feet.

3. Set the Sportwing^® aside and place the template, provided, on the drivers’ side outline made in Step #2. When drilling 3/8” hole for wire harness, drill through the top panel only. We suggest using a #1 uni-bit for a cleaner cut. Next, using a 5/32” drill bit, drill through the two spots on the drivers’ side template (NOTE: when drilling these two fastening holes, you will need to continue drilling through the secondary panel of the deck lid). Be careful not to drill into the rain channel of trunk when drilling through secondary panel. Flip template over for passenger side, only using fastening holes. Wire harness hole not needed on passenger side.

4. Open the deck lid and using a 5/8” hole saw, open the 5/32” pilot holes that you made in the secondary panel to 5/8”. This will give you access for your socket wrench later on in the installation. Black hole plugs have been provided to cover these holes upon finishing. Repeat procedure on other side.

5. Close the trunk and remove the paper liner from the bottom of the mounting feet. Feed the brake light wires through the harness hole that you made in Step #3 (NOTE: be careful not to crimp the brake light wires as you position the Sportwing^® 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. Holding onto the Sportwing^®, drill up into the bottom of the mounting feet using the mounting holes drilled in top panel, in Step #3 (NOTE: when drilling, we insist using a drill stopper to prevent from drilling up through the top of the Sportwing^®). Using a ratchet with 5/16” socket, install mounting screws with washers and tighten firmly (NOTE: be careful not to over tighten). Use black hole caps, provided, to cover holes in secondary panel (NOTE: use the more flexible 5/8” caps for the 5/8” hole that you made in the secondary panel for the inside most 5/8” hole, as shown in Diagram B on back of sheet). Repeat on other side.

7. Feed the brake light wires of the Sportwing^® towards the drivers side trunk hinge. Insert the Sportwing^® brake light wires into the black factory wire harness which runs from the deck lid into the inside of the trunk. Next, run the Sportwing^® brake light wires to the third brake light and using the electrical connectors, provided, connect the red (hot) wire of the Sportwing^® to the purple and white wire of the plug of the third brake light. Next, connect the black (ground) wire of the Sportwing^® to the black wire. Test your connection by stepping on the brake pedal.

9. Replace the trunk liner and clean up any metal shavings that might have fallen into the trunk and you are done. 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.
