Simple Installation in Four Steps
- Remove Old Panels: Loosen the two side-mount bolts on each side of your current battery covers and set them aside.
- Clean the Surface: Wipe down the battery housing with a clean rag to remove dirt and grease.
- Align New Covers: Position the left and right black panels so the mounting holes match the bracket studs.
- Tighten Fasteners: Secure each cover with the original bolts. Torque to manufacturer’s recommended spec (about 9 ft-lbs) to keep them snug without over-tightening.
