Illustrations A and B
- Remove the two nuts holding the right taillight in place.
- Pull out the taillamp and place it at the right-hand side of the tailgate opening (Illustration B).









- Remove the two screws and remove the upper part of the right-hand taillight.





- Remove the rubber grommet (with cables) of the right-hand taillight from the body.
- Pre-drill a - 5 mm (3/16 ") on the right-hand side of the rubber grommet.
- Drill out the hole using a - 8 mm (5/16 ") drill bit.

Note! Do not damage the adjacent cables.





- Clean the marked surface from dirt and grease using a blend of washer fluid and water as marked. Wipe dry.
- Now clean the same area with isopropanol wipes and wipe dry.






The antenna will be positioned in the space between the roof's center embossing and the embossing to the right of such on the right-hand side of the roof.
- Clean the marked surfaces on the roof and in the "ditch" around the antenna module panel. Use Cleaner-H part no. 1161436. Wipe dry.





- Position the antenna and the first part of the cable in the center of the space between two of the roof plate's embossings. Make sure that the hooked part of the antenna cable ends up at the hooking of the roof plate.
- Use pieces of tape to mark out the positions of the antenna and cable.





- Remove the protective backing from the attachment tape of the antenna and antenna cable.





- First position the antenna cable's bent part and then continue to secure the cable and antenna along the tape markings.

Press securely and hold for 30 seconds so that the tape adheres properly.





- Remove some of the protective backing from the antenna cable's second part.





- Now guide the casing of the second antenna part towards the first and under its tab (1).
- Press the casing so that it fastens in the bottom of the "ditch" using the part of the tape with the backing removed.





- Continue removing the protective backing from the second part of the antenna cable and press it into the bottom of the "ditch" while doing so.
- Continue until the antenna cable with casing has been affixed in the "ditch" around the antenna module panel. Use a weatherstrip tool to press the antenna into place in the "ditch" around the antenna module. Make sure that the antenna fastens properly around the corner of the antenna module.





- Press the antenna cable into place against the vertical part of the roof edge at the last 150 mm (5 15/16 ") of the "ditch" but as far down to the bottom of the "ditch" as possible.

Note! The last part of the "ditch" is narrower and may vary from car to car.





- Now go over the entire antenna cable routing again and press it into place more.





- Route the antenna cable inside the taillight as illustrated.
- Guide the cable through the rubber grommet and reinstall the rubber grommet in the body.

Note! Do not damage the antenna cable connector.





- Use tape pieces from the kit to fasten the antenna cable, pulling it taut as you affix each piece of tape.

Note! Be sure not to tape the cable in a way that causes it to be in the way of the taillight's guides/guide pins or mounting holes.

- Make sure that the cable makes a loop under the hole in the body, comes from underneath and goes into the rubber grommet to prevent water penetration at the rubber grommet.





- Use a piece of tape to fasten the cable loop beneath the rubber grommet. Pull all excess length of cable into the cargo compartment.





- Use butyl tape to seal around the antenna cable in the rubber grommet on both sides.





- Take the connector from the kit and press the antenna cable into it.
- Press the connector's catch into place.

Note! Ensure that the antenna cable is secure in the connector to prevent contact breaks.





- Pull the cable into the cargo compartment. Make sure that the cable loop beneath the rubber grommet does not disappear.
- Move the bottom edge of the insulating panel aside and fit two band clamps with edge clips along the edge of the wheel housing approximately in the positions illustrated.





- Pull the antenna cable down along the existing cable harnesses toward the first clip in the plate flange of the wheel housing.
- Use two clamps to clamp the cable around the wheel housing edge and two band clamps to clamp it at existing cable harnesses.

There are two variants of isolating panels.
