| 3 | Endgate Spoiler Assembly Adhesive Tape Liner Tip: The part and surface should be ambient temperature prior to installation. The vehicle should remain ambient temperature for one hour after assembly to allow adhesive to develop sufficient bond strength. Release the liner and wet out once the endgate spoiler is in position and the screws have been installed. |
