1 Liftgate Emblem (Wreath and Crest)

Procedure

  1. The part and surface should be 21°C (70°F) prior to installation. The vehicle should remain 21°C (70°F) for one hour after assembly to allow adhesive to develop sufficient bond strength.
  2. Use a J 25070  Heat Gun or equivalent to remove the old emblem/nameplate.
  3. Clean all adhesive from the liftgate and wipe the surface dry with a clean lint-free towel prior to installing the new emblem/nameplate.
  4. When removing protective liners from the adhesive tape, be careful not to touch tape with hands and do not allow tape to come in contact with dirt or any foreign matter prior to adhesion.
  5. Align the pins on the wreath and crest to the holes in the liftgate.
  6. Using the palm of the hand, wet out the emblem/name plate to the liftgate to ensure full adhesion of the emblem/nameplate is made.
