Mount the
gauge mount over the factory pillar.
Hold it up tight against the headliner.
Press the door molding back into place
and make a light pencil mark along the
molding for a reference for the 2
fasteners. In some applications
you will be able to install the
fasteners underneath the molding,
concealing them. This was not the
case in this installation. There
wasn't enough material on the factory
pillar. Find a suitable location
for the 2 fasteners. While holding the
gauge mount up tight against the
headliner, drill 2 holes with a 3/16"
drill bit for the fasteners. You will be
drilling the other 2 fastener holes
(windshield side) later.
SPECIAL NOTE: When you finally
install the gauge mount, check your
location of the 2 fasteners that will be
on the windshield side of the mount.
If the holes you drilled are on top of
the factory metal chassis that runs the
length of the A-pillar, you may need to
trim the length of the fasteners to
prevent them from coming in contact with
the metal below them. If they do hit the
chassis, they will not be able to be
inserted all the way, causing the paint
on them to come off. |
