Step-1
Remove the vehicle's plastic rear view mirror wiring cover by sliding the upper sleeve portion down and forward to disengage
it from the vehicle's headliner (see Figure 1), then pull the cover off of the rear view mirror mounting bracket (see Figure 2). Discard or
store away the vehicle's plastic rear view mirror wiring cover as desired as it will not be reused for mounting the SuperVisor.
Step-2
With a small thin screw driver, remove the plastic fastening wedges that retain the vehicles's plastic inner visor clips, as
shown in Figure 3, then remove the plastic visor clips, plastic visor clip detent, and the detent spring from the vehicle's sheet metal
bracket (see Figure 4). The two inner visor clip areas of the vehicle should now look as shown in Figure 5.
Step-3
Position the supplied Sheet Metal Drilling Template over the vehicle's sheet metal visor clip bracket as shown in Figure 6.
Caution: Make absolutely certain that the Sheet Metal Drilling Template is centered over the vehicle's
sheet metal visor clip bracket in both directions and that it is held parallel to the bracket (See Figure
7 for correct and incorrect positioning). It is very important that the Drilling Template does not move
while drilling the holes! It is highly recommended that you have an assistant hold the template so that it
doesn't move while you drill the holes and to keep the holes from being drilled crooked or out of loca-
tion.
While holding the Drilling Template so that it does not move, drill (2) 9/64" diameter holes one at each end of the slot in the
Drilling Template through the headliner material and through the first layer of the Caprice's headliner sheet metal. (see Figure 7 again,
also see Figures 8 and 9).
Caution: Only drill through the first layer of the vehicle's sheet metal. Be very care-
ful not to drill all the way through the vehicle's roof!
Step-4
Loop a piece of wire through the vehicle's sheet metal visor clip bracket to prevent it from accidentally popping up into the
hole in the headliner and using a pair of plyers compress the (4) side retention tabs of the vehicles sheet metal visor clip bracket and
pull the bracket down out of the hole in the headliner (see Figure 10). Repeat this step for both of the brackets. Discard or store away
the vehicle's inner visor clip assembly as desired as it will not be reused for mounting the SuperVisor.
Step-5
Position the supplied Sheet Metal Drilling Template against the vehicle's plastic outer visor pivot brackets as shown in Figure
11-Driver Side and Figure 12-Passenger Side.
Caution: Make absolutely certain that the Sheet Metal Drilling Tem-
plate is held tight against the vehicle's plastic outer visor pivot brackets in both directions as shown
and noted in Figures 11 and 12. Again as stated in Step-3, it is very important that the Drilling Template
does not move while drilling the holes. Again, it is highly recommended that you have an assistant hold
the template so that it doesn't move while you drill the holes and to keep the holes from being drilled
crooked or out of location!
While holding the SuperVisor's Drilling Template so that it does not move, drill (3) 9/64" diameter
holes at each of the (3) hole locations indicated in Figures 11 and 12 (see Figures 13,14, and 15-Drivers Side Shown).
Step-6
Position the supplied Plastic Inner Visor Clips into the rectangular hole in the supplied Inner Mounting Brackets as shown
in Figure 16, then position the Inner Mounting Brackets with the Plastic Inner Visor Clips over the rectangular hole in the vehicle's
headliner, align the slotted holes in the Inner Mounting Brackets and the holes in the Plastic Inner Visor Clips with the holes drilled in
Step-3 and thread (2) supplied Black Oxided #8 X 1" Phillips Truss Head Sheet Metal Screws as shown in Figures 17 and 18. Only
thread the screws in about half way to get them started so that they will screw in and out easily for adjustment later, do not tighten the
screws at this time.
Step-7
Position the supplied Driver and Passenger Side Outer Mounting Brackets as shown in Figure 19 (Driver Side Shown), align
the slotted holes in the Mounting Brackets with the holes drilled in Step-5, and thread the (3) supplied Black Oxided #8 X 1" Phillips
Truss Head Sheet Metal Screws through the (3) slotted holes in each of the Outer Mounting Brackets and into the holes that were
drilled in the vehicle in Step 5. Only thread the screws in about half way to get them started so that they will screw in and out easily for
adjustment later. Do not tighten the screws at this time (again see Figure 19).
Step-8
Route the SuperVisor's cable to the desired side of the vehicle and through the cable slot at the end of the Outer Panel.
Make sure the cable will not interfere with the vehicle's headliner and windshield as you position the SuperVisor up to the headliner
and in front of the Inner Mounting Brackets (see Figure 20). Thread the supplied 1/4"-20 screws and internal tooth lock washers
through the slots in the Inner Mounting Brackets and into the Outer Panel (see Figure-21). Thread the supplied 1/4"-20 screws and
internal tooth lock washers through the slots in the Outer Mounting Brackets and into the Outer Panel (see Figure-22-Drivers Side
Shown). Thread all (4) of the 1/4"-20 screws up to minimize the slack between the Mounting Brackets and the SuperVisor but do not
fully tighten the screws at this time. A small amount of slack is needed for adjustment later.
