Reference points for fitting:

Only precise alignment of the panel with the door

lining warrants optimal fit.

Reference line 1: the lower edge of the panel is parallel

to the lower edge of the door lining. (see fig.2)
Reference line 2: the front edge of the panel must be inline with
the design line of the door lining.
end of panel is in line with the door lining

6. Insulation of the car lining

Insulation of the car lining or door panel is not necessary.

Important tip:
Preventive measurements against vibration noise:
- by knocking on the car door, vibrations caused by mechanic parts (e.g. Bowden pull wire etc. )
and wiring harness may be found out. Cover these parts with foamed material, felt or
something like that
- cut off overlapping cable tie (rattle noise)
- adhere felt or foamed material under the original wiring harness
- asphalt mat instead of the moisture protection foil
