CAUTIONS:

Always protect paintwork and glass when removing exterior components.

Always protect the interior components when removing body glass.

6. WARNING: Wear safety goggles and protective gloves.

CAUTIONS:

The glass roof panel adhesive is uneven as there are 6 raised Torx bolts that may catch the BTB blade (measure and mark the area before cutting. Use the rear front stud as a fixing point to take measurements from, as indicated) on cutting the adhesive.

Make sure that a velcro stick on pad (WK11VEL from the BTB kit) is installed to the bottom of the blade, to prevent damage to the paintwork.

Protect the surrounding paintwork and body from the movement of the cutting blades, using WK11PP.

NOTE: Glass roof panel shown removed for clarity.
