Installation instructions
Before proceeding to the removal of the door panels and footwell trim, it is
advisable to expose storage areas for the parts removed during the
installation. In addition, it is helpful to keep the clamps and screws that will
be removed sorted.
These installation instructions describe the installation of the softclose
mechanism on the two doors of the vehicle on the left in the direction of
travel. On the right-hand side of the vehicle in the direction of travel, the
installation is identical and can therefore be carried out according to the
same instructions.
💡 Tip
Start the installation from the driver's door.
