^ Remove backing paper (arrow) from washer (10).

^ Insert washer (10) into drilled hole and affix adhesive side of washer to underside of trunk lid.

Note:

Ensure raised surface of washer is raised or flush with surface of trunk lid when installed never recessed.

2. Loosen the T25 Torx screw (arrow, Figure 3) on the SDAR antenna.

3. Feed antenna leads coming from the SDAR antenna (A2182, Figure 2) through the washer (10).

4. Carefully insert the SDAR antenna sleeve (11, Figure 2) into the washer (10) until it snaps into place.

Manually apply pressure to bottom of washer (10) when inserting SDAR antenna sleeve (11) to prevent washer from pushing out of trunk lid.

5. Align the SDAR antenna straight with the vertical side facing front and the angled side facing rear (A2182, Figure 2).

6. Apply light downward pressure to the SDAR antenna (A2182, Figure 2) to ensure the gasket fully seals flush against the trunk lid.
