OPTIONAL SECURITY STEP
WARNING! - Make sure that there is nothing behind the dash that will be damaged by the drill bit when drilling.
(2007-2010 JK) Drill a 3/8” hole in the dash frame corresponding with the center hole in Mounting Bracket #4. Fasten
using 5/16 x 1” bolt #13.3, 5/16 Nut #13.5, and 5/16” Washers #13.4. (See Figure 1)

with the center hole in Mounting Bracket #4. Fasten using 5/16 x 1” bolt #13.3, 5/16 Nut #13.5, and 5/16” Washers #13.4.
(See Figure 1)
7. Position the Glove box in the dash so the mounting holes by the hinge line up with the holes in the #4 Mounting
Bracket and fasten them together using (2) ¼-20 x ¾ screws #13.2 and (2) ¼ Washers #13.6. (See Figure 1)

loosening the fasteners and maneuvering the box as required.

the Glove box past the #6 Latch bracket, slide the #3 Door stop up and tightening the Wingnuts. When the door is
opened the #3 Door stop will hit the #6 Latch bracket preventing the door from opening further. (See Figure 1)

ATTENTION:
FREQUENT LUBRICATION IS NECESSARY ON THE LOCKING SYSTEM
The pushbutton lock contains an “O” ring seal to protect the interior from dust and water. If this mechanism is not lubricated regularly it will become
difficult to operate and it may not return to its home position preventing the key from operating the lock. If this happens simply pull up on the pushbutton
to manually bring it back to its home position. Lubricate the pushbutton with a light lubricant such as silicone spray. The pushbutton may have to be
periodically disassembled and cleaned.
