SUBASSEMBLY:
1. Remove seats and seat belts for better access to the windows.
2. Remove plastic trim surrounding the fixed body windows. Save the plastic trim for
reinstallation.
3. Determine which guard goes to each window. NOTE: The perforated diamond shaped holes has
one side that is smoother than the other. The smoother side goes towards the inside, facing the
passenger.
DOOR WINDOW GUARDS:
1. In order for guard to fit properly on frame, you must permanently remove the upper plastic trim
on doors. The top of the lower door panel may have to be trimmed approximately ¼” to ½”.
(Note: Place guard on window frame to determine possible trimming). See section 8 – door
window guard does not have cutouts for window latches (making them inoperable).
2. With the doors open, hold the window screen up to the window/door frame. The guard
framework should fit evenly around the window frame.
3. Mark a few holes at the top of the door frame using the predrilled holes on the screen framework
as a guide. Do not mark holes for the sides or bottom yet.
4. Put on Safety goggles.
5. Remove window guards and drill holes as marked with a 1/8” drill bit.
6. Attach window screens by using #10 x ½” sheet metal screws. Now locate and mark the balance
of holes, drill and attach, starting at the top and work your way down.
7. If vehicle has plastic upper door trim, do not reinstall.

3. Notching Plastic:
• The window trim for the first drivers’ side window (F1-1) must be cut where the pop out
window latches are located.
• Mark the “V” shaped foot print of latch and cut plastic trim. The latches will bolt back
against metal at the original location.
4. Final Touches:
• The trim sections at the top and at the rear doors may stick out a little at the top where it
meets the headliner.
• Use a #10 x 1 ¼” Sheet metal screw to secure it down at the top of the trim.
•
Some trim panels between windows may also need sheet metal screws to secure them.
• Attach supplied Window Latch cover plates as shown below using #10 x ½” sheet metal
screws as shown below.
NOTE: The headliner will push against the window guards. This may cause the headliner to
buckle slightly. If desired, the headliner can be carefully trimmed (cut) with a razor knife
where it meets the window guard. This will alleviate the buckling headliner.
