SSK-F1504DRV3 Truck Door Kit
Instructions

Tools needed for installation:

Screwdriver
Panel tool
Microfiber cloth
Acetone or cleaning solution
Razor blade
Roller

Start by locating the fastening hardware on the door panel, take the appropriate screwdriver and remove it.
Once all the screws are removed you can take off the door panel using a panel tool. Be sure to not break any of the clips or mounting hardware. Pull the panel away slowly and unplug any electrical connections.
Now you are ready to prep the metal surface using a microfiber cloth, Acetone (use a breathing mask), and wipe away any moisture, oil, debris or etc. Then let the air dry for an appropriate time. The point is to get the surface clean to ensure material glue contact.
When the surface is dry and clean, locate the piece of the kit with the label on the back that coincides with the door you’re working on. Make sure it lines up correctly before you pull the backing off. After you confirm the right piece, pull off the backing paper and apply the material at the top and work your way down with a roller. Make sure the material is pushed down completely and that no air is trapped. Use a razor blade point or household needle to release air. Repeat these steps for all door panels.
Press down firmly onto the area where your car speaker hole is, and feel for the speaker wire. Use a razor blade to cut around the speaker hole, being careful to not cut the wire harness. Take the piece you just cut out and stick it behind the speaker hole on the outer door skin to act as a back wave. Score the area where the wire harness is with your blade and tuck the harness between the two flaps. Plug in your speaker.
Now you are ready to place the door panel back on your door. All necessary openings will be available after you have applied the SoundSkins material. Secure the door panel with all screws and you are now ready to hit the road!

Recommended Installation Instructions

A. Prepping the Surface
After removing the interior door panels, you are ready to clean the metal areas that will be insulated. If the metal has a “new” look without imperfections, then take a microfiber cloth and wipe away any dust and debris. If the metal is showing signs of age like rust, we recommend using Acetone with a breathing mask to wipe off debris and loose particles. A shop vacuum might be needed to remove loose debris on the floorboard.
B. Installing Panels
Now that you have a clean surface, you are ready to start applying the sheets. We recommend using a roller to release air pockets that might be lingering from trapped air. You want to make sure that you have rolled those out to the edge and that all the material has a good seal to the metal surface. Make sure all pieces are installed and inspected before reinstalling the interior.
