Installing Rear Body (Coupe)
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.
- Install rear body (Coupe) and check that it fits perfectly.
- Apply adhesive evenly on the entire bonding surface of the body. > Application depth 0.5 mm
