Installation

Pre-Installation

1. Inspect product for damages that might have been caused by shipping before installing on vehicle. Retro USA Inc. will not accept damaged returns that have been installed on the vehicle.

2. Do not remove any red tape linings before installation. These will be removed during the installation process.

3. Prepare vehicle for installation by cleaning all adhesion surfaces. Vehicle surface must be clean and dry for proper adhesion. Use isopropyl alcohol and a cloth to remove existing wax and dirt residue.

Installation Tip

  • To make the red lining tabs easily accessible during installation, fold the tabs back 45° in the direction that they will be pulled. It may be necessary to slightly lift the part during installation so that the linings pull off easily and do not tear.

Quarter Molding Installation

1.  Begin with the driver side of the vehicle.

2. Place Quarter Molding on the quarter panel cove and locate for best appearance using light pressure. Be sure that all 5 tabs are accessible. Use the fender line as a reference point as shown below. The measurement should be 3½ in.



3. Hold down the Quarter Molding in the center and pull the rear tab toward the bottom of the vehicle as shown below. Apply light pressure to the insert where the lining has been removed.



4. Continue holding the Quarter Molding and pull the front tab toward the bottom of the vehicle as shown below. The front tab must be pulled behind the three protrusions. Apply light pressure to the insert where the lining has been removed.


5. Pull the remaining three tabs toward the front of the vehicle as shown below. Apply light pressure to the insert where the lining has been removed.


6. Press firmly on the Quarter Molding to secure it to the vehicle.

7. Repeat steps 2-6 on the passenger side of the vehicle.

8. Congratulations! You have installed the Quarter Molding.
