Information
- Before final assembly, make sure you fully understand all the work steps involved and carry out a trial assembly without applying adhesive.
- The bonding process can only be carried out reliably when a smooth and swift sequence of operations is guaranteed.
- Do not begin bonding work until all materials and tools necessary for later repair work are available.
- Apply adhesive to the marked areas. → Application depth: 3.0 mm

- Resistance spot-weld the inner side section.
- Resistance spot-weld the inner side section.
Information
- The side member reinforcement and inner side section are installed together in one step.
- Resistance spot-welds are applied to both components at the same time.
- The side member reinforcement -2- and inner side section -1- are resistance spot-welded to the top of the cross member -3- in one step.
- Install A-pillar section.
