Align the Foot Rail with the rib on the roof
so that it runs parallel with the rib before
marking the two front holes.
Mark the position of the two front holes of
the Foot Rail onto the outside of the roof.
Remove the rail and from the outside, drill
4mm pilot holes on the marks just made.
Do this on both sides of the vehicle.
Using the Foot Rail as a template check that
all four holes are centered in the slots of the
Foot Rail.
4mm Pilot Holes
Mark Front Holes
Change the 4mm drill bit to a 22mm hole
saw. From the outside of the vehicle, drill all
the 4mm holes (8 in total) out to 22mm.
Let the drill do the work. You do not want to
scratch or damage your vehicle's roof. Have
your friend hold the vacuum cleaner
underneath where you are drilling to catch
all the dust and keep your vehicle clean.
After drilling, clean the area around all the
22mm holes in the roof with a rag and
methylated spirits/denatured alcohol.

Clean the area around all the 22mm holes
drilled in the roof with a rag and

Insert the Aluminum Spacers (Item 8)
into the Foam Washer (Item 9). Remove
the paper backing from the Foam washer
to expose the adhesive.

If not already assembled, assemble your
Tray as per the Universal Tray Assembly
Instructions (Document RRSTUNI)
NOTE: Before fitting the Wind
Deflector, insert two M8 x 16 Hex
Bolts (Item 16 from FAJK008) or
(Item 1 from FAJK007) into the first
slat (Combined Slat), using the
Machined slots. Slide a bolt to each
of the outer corners.
After fitting the wind deflectors, the tray
should still be upside down, loosely
mount the Foot Rails (Item 17L & 17R
from FAJK008 box) to the Tray using M8
x 16 Hex Bolts, M8 X 16 X 1.6SS Flat
Wahsers and M8 Nyloc Nuts (Items 16,
18 & 19). As before use the machined
slots to insert the hex bolts into the
Slats. The Foot Rail should be mounted
at the opposite end of the Tray to the
wind deflector.
The rear of the Foot Rail must mount
onto the very last Slat (Combined Slat)
and approximately 80mm in from the
outer edge of the side of the Tray. Do not
tighten the bolts yet.

MOUNT YOUR TRAY
With the help of a friend, flip the Tray
end over end so that it is in the upright
position. (The Tray is flipped end over
end so that bolts and brackets do not
slide left and right).
With one of you on either side of the
Tray, lift the Tray and walk it into
position above the vehicle, approaching
from either the front or the rear of the
vehicle.
The Foot Rail should still be loose
enough to move. Line the brackets up
with the holes on the roof and fasten
them into position using M6 x 30 Hex
Bolts, M6 x 19 x 1SS Flat Washers, M6 x
12 x 1SS Flat Washers and M6 Nyloc
Nuts (Items 6, 7, 11 & 12). Centre the tray
from left to right. Use a tape measure to
double check. Once you are happy that
the Tray is in the correct position, fasten
all the nuts and bolts, both inside and
outside of the vehicle on all brackets
that were installed.
Place M6 Nut Caps (Item 5) over all the
exposed bolts and close up all the roll
bar padding.

Should you wish to remove your rack,
you will need to plug the holes you
drilled in the roof (Step 3.4), using the
supplied Sealing Plug Assemblies.
Remove the Tray, Front Uprights and the
Foot Rail, by reversing the instillation
procedure. Leave the Foam Washer and
the Aluminum Spacers in place. Screw in
the Sealing Plugs reusing the M6 Nyloc
Nuts and Washers that held the Foot Rail
in position.
