I-DSSRINST.doc Page 5 of 8
Step 1- Please note hole locations are opposite on LH and RH sides.
2) Next, mount (2) Stainless “L” Brackets (HI) through upper holes as shown, using
(1) 2-1/2” Torx Bolt (HD) and (1) Tee Nut (HF) at middle and rear end as shown.
Snug fasteners, but do not completely tighten at this point. Locate (2) Saddles
(PD), with recessed holes on top side, rotate into upper slots as shown and using
(2) ¾” Torx Bolts (HA) and (2) Tee Nuts (HF) per Saddle, secure saddles to
Stainless “L” Brackets as shown.
Step 2- Lower “L” Bracket locations and Saddle mounting.
3) Mount (2) Stainless “L” Brackets (HE) to both top holes in Center Body Panel,
using (1) 1” Torx Bolt (HB) and (1) Tee Nut (HF) per pair of “L” Brackets as
shown- lightly snug bolts. Locate Steering Wheels (PE) and secure to Brackets
With (2) ¾” Torx Bolts (HA) and (2) Tee Nuts (HF) for each Steering Wheel.
