NOTE:

- Put on gloves to protect your hands.

1. Remove the door checker mounting bolt (B) at the A-pillar.

2. Detach the clips (C, D, E) and release the hook (F).

3. Release the door weatherstrip from the holder (G) on the door sash, then remove the weatherstrip.





2. Install the weatherstrip in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:

- Push the clips into place securely.
- Make sure the weatherstrip is installed in the holder securely.
- Apply medium strength liquid thread lock to the door checker mounting bolt before installation.
