This story illustrates, how to install a WSA-2000 wind blocker to a 2001 SLK230 Kompressor.
|
|
First, it is a good idea to take the top down.
|
|
Simply because of the fact that top down gives us more space to work on the car.
|
|
The WSA-2000 wind blocker will require us to remove the hangers above the map pocket in the cabin wall.
|
|
The hanger has a hook and a torx screw.
|
|
Open the screws and the hangers can be removed easily.
|
|
In the WSA-2000 kit there are two mounting plates. Use hanger screws...
|
|
...to place these to where we removed the hangers. Do not tighten these fully yet. We need to give the wind blocker some space to find the optimal position.
|
|
Now it is time to bring the windscreen to the car. Clean it one more time, since once it is installed, it is not very easy to clean.
|
|
Align the WSA-2000 windscreen using stock wind blocker hooks in the cabin wall.
|
|
Press the wind screen all the down to "lock" it.
|
|
In the WSA-2000 kit there are two lock screws. Lock the WSA-2000 wind blocker to the mounting plates using these.
|
|
Now it is time to tighten the mounting plate screws.
|
|
Place plastic caps to cover the mounting plce screws, and you are done!
