Installation Procedure

  1. Connect the electrical to the sunshade connector if equipped.
  2. Position the sunshade to the mounting point at the roof.

Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

    Tighten the sunshade screws to 2 N·m (18 lb in).
