Always exercise caution when working on vehicle interiors. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves, to prevent injury from sharp edges or tools. Ensure the vehicle's electrical system is disconnected if working near wiring. Keep small parts away from children.

Instalazioa

This kit is specifically designed for 1969 F-Body vehicles, such as the Camaro. Prior to installation, ensure the old dash pad and any existing clips have been carefully removed.

1. Prepare the Dash Area: Thoroughly clean the mounting surface on the dashboard to ensure proper seating of the new dash pad and clips. Remove any debris, old adhesive, or rust.
2. Inspect the Dash Pad: Examine your new or existing dash pad for the designated mounting points where the clips will attach. These are typically small slots or holes designed to receive the clip's base.
3. Attach Clips to Dash Pad: Carefully slide the base of each of the six mounting clips into the corresponding slots on the underside of the dash pad. Ensure the clips are fully seated and oriented correctly to align with the dashboard's mounting points. The curved portion of the clip should face away from the dash pad, ready to engage with the dashboard.
4. Position the Dash Pad: Gently place the dash pad onto the dashboard, aligning the clips with the receiving holes or slots on the vehicle's dash frame.
5. Secure the Dash Pad: Apply firm, even pressure to the dash pad directly above each clip location. You should feel the clips engage and snap into place, securing the dash pad. Work from one end to the other, ensuring all clips are properly seated.
6. Segurtasuna egiaztatu: Once all clips are engaged, gently attempt to lift the dash pad in various locations to confirm it is securely fastened and does not shift.

If you encounter resistance, do not force the clips. Re-align the dash pad and clips, then attempt to seat them again. Improper installation can damage the clips or the dash pad.

Mantentzea

The ORE dash pad mounting clips are designed for durability and require minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the dash pad for any looseness. If the dash pad becomes loose, gently press down on the affected area to re-engage the clips. Avoid using harsh chemicals near the clips, as this may degrade the material over time.

• Dash Pad Not Seating Properly:

  Ensure the clips are correctly oriented and fully inserted into the dash pad's mounting points. Verify that no obstructions are preventing the dash pad from sitting flush on the dashboard. Check for any bent or damaged clips that may hinder proper engagement.

• Clips Not Engaging:

  Confirm that the receiving holes on the dashboard are clear of debris or corrosion. Apply firm, even pressure directly over each clip location. If a clip still does not engage, remove the dash pad and inspect the clip and the dashboard's mounting point for any misalignment or damage.

• Dash Pad Feels Loose After Installation:

  Gently press down on the loose areas to ensure all clips are fully engaged. If the issue persists, it may indicate a damaged clip or an incompatibility with the dash pad or dashboard. Re-inspect all clips and mounting points.
