Speedster and Spider Wind-Gard
Installation

DO NOT REMOVE HARDWARE FROM THE WIND-GARD! THE ONLY PCS. TO REMOVE FOR THE INSTALLATION ARE THE THUMB SCREWS AND THREADED INSERTS! THE L-BRACKETS, T-HANDLE, WINDOW MOLDING, ETC. ARE TO BE LEFT ALONE! Step 1 Preparing the Underside of Light Bar – Proper adhesion of the Wind-Gard rubber trim seal guides will not occur properly unless the underside of the Light Bar is cleaned thoroughly. The area must be clean of all silicon and other oils etc… Cleaning is accomplished using a small pad of fine steel wool dampened with denatured alcohol. Don't be afraid of the color coming off during the cleaning process, (test a small area under Light Bar. It is imperative to thoroughly clean the underside of your Light Bar.

Step 2 Placement of temporary guides - Place the two foam temporary guides under the light bar at two o'clock and ten o'clock. The front edge of the guides should be even with the forward edge of the plastic strip on the underside of the Light-Bar. (FIGURE 1)	Figure1

Step 3 Mark Light Bar for drilling mounting inserts - Position WIND-GARD under the bar against the two temporary rubber pads. (It is best to have a helper with this step.) Make sure the WIND-GARD is centered from side to side on the Light Bar. Hold steady and mark the locations for drilling using the bracket holes. Locate L-bracket approx.1/4" to 1/2" from the front edge of light-bar. Figure 1-A Have Tonneau (if applicable) in position and secured tightly during this operation to ensure proper clearance	Figure1-A

Step 4 Drill Light Bar mounting holes - Drill a 5/16" hole (drill not supplied) centered on the marks made in the preceding step. It is important to drill perpendicular, at right angle to the light bar. this hole should be ¾" deep. Care should be taken not to elongate holes when drilling.	Figure 2
Step 5 Installation of metal tap inserts Install the metal tap inserts snugly, using the respective 6mm Allen wrench. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.	Figure 3

Step 6 Mount Wind-Gard Place thumb screws through the L-Brackets into the inserts on both sides of Wind-Gard (Hand tighten only) At this point Wind-Gard should be held up on both sides by the thumb screws and at the top by the two outside upper temporary rubber pads. minor bending of the l-bracket may be needed for a flush mount to the bar and window.	Figure 3

Step 7 Installation of Inside Rubber Trim Seals - to start orange protective coating removal Partially remove the orange adhesive protective coating. This will make it easier to work with. Peel more as you attach the trim. Begin installation of the rubber trim seals from the inside (facing front of car). Start just above the left or right L-bracket keeping the rubber trim snug to the Wind-Gard. Push lightly against the window trim. Keep the rubber trim straight and even with the Wind-Gard. Press rubber firmly against the light bar. Trim excess at the end even with the other side (L-bracket).	Figure 4

Step 8 Installation of Outside rubber trim Seals-Begin installation of the outside rubber trim seals. Repeat installation the same as the inside trim). Remove one of the temporary foam pads. Clean any glue that might be left behind from foam pads. Leave the other pad in place until you reach that point. Starting again just above the l-bracket, press the rubber firmly to the light bar and snug against the outside of the WIND-GARD. Sandwich the Wind-Gard between the two rubber trim seals. Again trim the seal ends as necessary.

Step 9 Seating the rubber trim seals - Remove the two thumb screws and take out the Wind-Gard. Set aside. Firmly press the rubber against the light bar in all areas. It is very important the rubber is nice and straight with 1/2 " gap between inside and outside rubber trim.
