Step -9. Attach the harness to the underside of the spoiler using the supplied square adhesive mounting bases and zip
ties to the areas shown (See arrows in Figure -7). IMPORTANT NOTE: Thoroughly clean all locations where the
square adhesive mounting bases will be installed with the supplied alcohol pads before adhering the bases to
the vehicle! Allow the alcohol to dry completely before applying the mounting bases. Make sure the harness is
securely attached up and away from the wiper arm or it could become entangled in the wiper arm.

Step -10. Open the hatch, remove the protective tape from the vehicle's OEM boot and route the CELS Cable or Stan-
dard Harness wires (which ever is applicable) through the boot as shown in Figure -8 Page 4. Note: It will require the
use of wire pull lubricant or liquid soap to aid in feeding the cable/harness through the boot. Pull out the slack
from the cable/harness making sure there is just enough slack to open and close the hatch and rewrap the boot
with appropriate tape to seal the boot back up.
