Step 5: After this distance has been determined, simply transfer

this measurement to the bottom side of the hood or

trunk lid. We recommend that you tape the bracket to

the hood or trunk lid and make sure that it will close

before drilling any holes. Once you are sure your bracket

is in its proper location, mark the position of the bracket

on the underside of the hood or trunk lid.

Step 6: Remove the upper bracket from the hood/trunk prop, and

use the bracket as a template to mark the screw holes.

Center punch and drill the three holes using a #26 or

9/64" drill bit. It is important that you be very careful

when drilling through the hood or trunk lid inner struc-

ture. If you push too hard, you may ding or even drill

through the outer skin.

Step 7: Mount the upper bracket using the supplied #10-32 x 1/2"

flat head self-tapping screws.

Step 8: Reinstall the hood/trunk prop onto the upper bracket. Be

sure that your hood or trunk will close all the way and

there are no obstructions to the hood/trunk prop.

The upper end of the hood/trunk prop has a quick-

release fitting, which allows you to disconnect the hood/

trunk prop from the hood or trunk lid without using any

tools. To disconnect the hood/trunk prop from the hood

or trunk lid, lift up slightly on the hood or trunk lid to

take the weight off of the hood/trunk prop. Pull down-

wards on the sleeve at the top of the inner rod, and then

pull the inner rod away from the

upper bracket. Fig. 3

Open the hood or trunk lid all the

way to the uppermost slot in the

hood/trunk prop. The inner rod

of the hood/trunk prop should

turn on its own. Gently let the

weight down on the prop, being

sure the inner rod has turned into

the slot and everything is holding

correctly. If the inner rod does

not turn on its own, disconnect

the hood/trunk prop at the quick-

release fitting. Unscrew the inner

rod one complete turn and then

reconnect the hood/trunk prop to

the hood or trunk lid.

See Fig. 4 for a completed

installation using the Lokar

upper bracket with the bottom

of the hood/trunk prop mounted

directly to the vehicle.

General Installation Notes:

Please read instructions completely before beginning installation.

If you have any questions please call.

Before starting installation, scotch vehicle tires to avoid accidental

movement of the vehicle. Disconnect negative battery cable before

beginning installation.

Refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 for the component names.

Two angle brackets are included with this kit. Installation of the angle

brackets requires a flat surface that is at a right angle to the hood/trunk

prop to mount it to. Note: For exact fitment, it may be necessary to bend

or modify the mount brackets. In some instances, the hood/trunk prop

may be mounted directly to the vehicle, and one or both brackets may be

eliminated.

Step 1: Determine where to mount the upper and lower brackets. When

installed, the hood/trunk prop cannot be slanted to the left or right

side of the vehicle; it must be vertical in the right to left direction.

With the prop collapsed to its shortest position, find a suitable

location that will allow it to lie down without obstruction. Carefully

and slowly close the hood or trunk lid to make sure that the hood/

trunk prop will not interfere. Once you have checked that the hood

or trunk lid will close with the hood/trunk prop in this location,

mark the position of the lower bracket.

Step 2: Remove the lower bracket from the hood/trunk prop. Hold the

bracket in its proper position on the vehicle and mark the screw

holes, using the bracket as a template. Center punch and drill the

three holes using a #26 or 9/64" drill bit.

Step 3: Mount the lower bracket using the supplied #10-32 x 1/2" flat

head self-tapping screws.

Step 4: Reinstall the hood/trunk prop onto the lower bracket. With the

hood/trunk prop fully closed, measure the distance from the bot-

tom mounting bolt to the upper mounting bolt. THIS DISTANCE IS

CRITICAL! If you mount the upper bracket too close, the hood or

trunk will not close all the way. If you mount the bracket too far

away, the hood or trunk will not open to its full potential.
