Liftgate Emblem/Nameplate Replacement (TRAVERSE AWD)

Callout Component Name
1 Liftgate Nameplate Assembly

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. Clean all adhesive from rear liftgate and wipe the surface dry with a clean lint-free towel prior to installing the new emblem / nameplate.
  3. Close the liftgate.
  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. Apply the liftgate nameplate to the desired location on the liftgate.
  6. Wet out the emblem and ensure full adhesion of the emblem to the liftgate is made.
