    Important:  The upper frame assembly will need to have new foam tape applied to the outer ring prior to assembly. The new foam tape will ensure the sunroof will seal properly upon the lower frame installation.

  8. Remove the old foam tape and apply new foam tape to the upper frame assembly.

    Important:  When applying new foam tape, overlap the foam tape at a screw hole to ensure proper sealing of the screw holes.
