Windshield Glareshield
Installation Instructions
All Passenger Cars
Fig. 76
CAUTION: This glareshield must be installed by experienced
personnel only. Rough handling can result in excessive scratching,
marring, and possible breakage of the shield.
- From a small diameter dowel cut a piece 11-1/8 inches long. This
dowel can be used for other glareshield installations.
- Position the dowel vertically on top of the instrument panel, at
the forward edge of the garnish molding, so the top end of the dowel
contacts the inside contour of the windshield garnish molding.
- Place a clip on top of the vertical dowel, with the hole facing the
windshield garnish molding and the spike pointed toward the rubber
molding, and push the s pike of the clip into the rubber molding.
- Install the other clip on the opposite side.
- With the protective cover still on, install the glareshield in both
clips. This is done by "bowing out" the shield and inserting
the outer ends of the shield in the clips. Press the two bowed out
portions of the glareshield against the windshield simultaneously.
If excessive pressure is required to press the glareshield against the
windshield, relocate the clips downward.
- Inspect the installation of the glareshield for position to see
that it touches the rubber molding at the top at all points, and that
the bottom edge is firm against the windshield. If the installation does

ALL PASSENGER CARS
- INSTALL LEFT FENDER GUARD FIRST. Assemble the front fender guard
support to the fender guard as shown using the flat washer and lock nut
providedFig. 78.
- Remove and discard the chrome bolt attaching the bumper to the
front fender. Note the order of installation of the remaining attaching
parts and save them for reuse.
- Stick the adhesive paper to the bumper face bar as shown, placing
the wider edge of the paper along the top edge of the face bar (directly
below the parking lamp) with approximately equal areas on each side of
the face bar crown Fig. 79.
- Hold the fender guard to the face bar in the installed position.
Reinstall the attaching parts, using the chrome bolt furnished in the
kit. Tighten the nut finger tight only. Insert washers between the
bumper and front fender extension, as required, to provide at least 1/2
inch clearance between the fender guard and fender Fig. 80.
- Pencil the outline of the support as it fits against the adhesive
paper on the face bar. Remove the fender guard.
- Place the template, printed side up, on the left face bar, to fit
the penciled outline. Tape the template in place and center punch at the
indicated center. Remove the template, but not the adhesive paper Fig. 81.
- Drill 1/8 inch guide hole through the punched center. Using the
guide hole as a center, drill a 1/2 inch hole through the face bar.
Remove the adhesive paper. To prevent corrosion, remove burrs and paint
the drilled hole Fig. 82.
- Fit the head of the carriage bolt through the key slot in the
bracket of the fender guard support and under the hold-down clip as
shown Fig. 83.
- Install the fender guard assembly using the lock nut at the
support, and the new chrome bolt and the existing attaching parts at the
fender Fig. 84.
- Should the radiator grille filler panel interfere with the
installation of the fender guard support nut, the bumper face bar should
be repositioned by loosening the bumper bracket bolts at the frame side
member Fig. 85.
- To install the right fender guard repeat all operations as outlined
except operation #7. The template, in this case, should be fitted to the
penciled outline with the printed side down. The punch mark from the
previous installation may then be used as a center for the right guard
punching operation.

Automatic Top Raiser
Installation Instructions
Convertible
This unit is designed to raise the top automatically when the
moisture sensitive grid becomes wet, providing the safety switch is ON,
and the ignition switch is OFF. The automatic lifting of the top con be
prevented by turning the safety switch on the underside of the
instrument panel to the OFF position. Also, when the ignition switch is
turned ON, a hold-out coil is energized which cuts out the automatic
operation, precluding the possibility of the top being raised
automatically when the car is in motion.

the instrument panel, and reinstall the two pan head screws,
lockwashers, and nuts, and tighten securely. Insert a 1-1/4 inch long
square neck bolt at the forward end of the control bracket, through the
dash panel. On the engine side, install a lockwasher and nut on the
bolt, and tighten.
- Scribe a line 7/8 inches to the left of the left hand screw which
holds the ventilator rod bracket (on the left side of the instrument
panel). Place the switch bracket over the scribed line, with the contour
of the switch bracket registering with the contour of the instrument
panel. Using the switch bracket as a template in that position, mark the
mounting hole location. Centerpunch and drill a 7/32 inch diameter hole.

and the wire from the BAT terminal of the top control switch. In their
place connect the red wire from the wiring harness to the A terminal,
and the ton wire from the wiring harness to the BAT terminal. Connect
the dark green wire, which was removed from the control switch, to the
terminal of the dark green wire from the wiring harness; and connect the
ton wire, which was removed from the control switch, to the terminal of
the ton wire from the wiring harness. Fig. 147.

wiring harness emerges from under the kick panel at that point, and is
routed around the base of the door pillar and into and through the
entire length of the crown of the stop molding, then out and around the
base of the door rear frame, and up inside the rear quarter inside trim
to the convertible top hinge assembly. (With the top up, push the
harness into the opening at the bottom of the rear quarter inside trim,
and using a wire from the top opening, "fish" for the harness
and pull it up.) Fig. 149.
- Install the micro switch on the bracket, as Fig. 150, using two 1 inch machine screws, lockwashers, and
nuts, finger tight only. Install the orange wire from the wiring harness

grommets in the center holes of the bracket. Insert a metal sleeve in
each grommet. Then put a lockwasher on one of the 1/2 inch screws,
followed by the gray wire terminal, and a fiber washer. Put a lockwasher
on the other 1/2 inch bolt, followed by the black wire terminal, and a
fiber washer. With these items assembled on the screws, attach the grid
to the bracket, as Fig. 152 in

equivalent), as shown in Fig. 40.
- Insert the paper-covered tape loops at an angle into the crevice
under the backrest, as shown in Fig. 41. NOTE: Space the tape loops equally apart, starting 4
inches from each end of the seat cushion.
ALTERNATE METHOD
- Assemble the insert tool with the tape loops, as shown in
Fig. 42.
- Slip the tape loops into the crevice under the backrest with the
insert tool. If necessary, pry the crevice slightly apart with a screw
driver using a vertical motion. See Fig. 43. NOTE: Space the tape loops equally apart, starting 4
inches from each end of the seat cushion.
