Better instructions for installation |

This "door" is basically just a plastic, pre-formed panel that covers up the opening you will be cutting into your existing fender liner! I thought that I had to actually cut this panel for the opening but that is NOT the case. I wound up using some JB Weld to fix the two cuts I made before realizing that I was wrong! You simply clamp the panel on the engine side of the liner where the filter access will be. You then drill the holes along the OUTER part of the panel into your liner (I went ahead and drilled ALL the holes, which works just fine). You then cut your LINER only where the instructions show "trim area". You will be attaching your liner piece to the plastic via the pins. You then take the entire assembly and attach it to the outer holes you previously drilled - using the push pins (I'm going to use nutserts for easier removal and better attachment. Then when you want to change the filter later, you simply remove the OUTER pins and the whole assemble comes out.
MadJack Diesel Performance Response:
The Installation process is you use the panel as a template. You trace the outside of the panel and mark the holes. Drill the holes then measure 1" less than than the trace or outline you made and that is your cut line. The cut out piece stays attached to the panel, to help with sound deadening, via a row of provided pins. When you remove the panel for filter change you only remove the outside row of pins. The inside row of pins holds the cut out piece to the panel.
Thank You for your purchase and 5 star review!
