86 21... Installing Seal For Rear Lid And Side Lid
The following text describes how to install the seal for the rear lid as an example. Proceed in the same way for the side lids.
Removing old seal:
Open lid. Grip seal piping with both hands and pull seal off hood ridge. Remove old seal over lid.
Push seal piping (1) by hand onto hood ridge (2). Using a rubber hammer, gently tap seal piping (1) as far as it will go onto hood ridge (2). Make sure piping (1) is evenly positioned especially in radii of hood ridge.
Installation:
Always position end face of seal in a straight area only:
e.g. on cross-member or on upper hood ridge of rear lid.
Suitable areas on side lids:
Upper and lower hood ridge.
Sealing lip of seal must point outwards.
After installing from inside and outside, check correct seating between lid seal and lid. Lid must rest without air on lid seal.
