Roof Rack - Accessory Luggage Carrier Installations

Number 85-2-7 Date 6/85
Subject: ACCESSORY LUGGAGE CARRIER INSTALLATIONS

1985 GRAND AM

LUGGAGE CARRIER DIMENSION CHANGE:




Some comments have been received that decklid weatherstripping is being damaged by the screws securing the front of the accessory luggage rack (PN 998882)..

The instruction sheet accompanying the luggage rack was specifically developed for "A" and "X" car installations. The instruction sheet does not apply to the Grand Am because it has a shorter deck lid.

To properly locate the luggage carrier on Grand Am installations, the 120 mm dimension on the instruction sheet should be changed to 80 mm. (See illustration).
