Installation of Side Steps

Model: Honda CR-V MK 4 - Years 2012-2017
Part: Accessory kit

For the modification, you need to obtain the original side steps, then position the vehicle on a ramp and start the work by removing the protective covers. Attach paper templates to the removed covers and mark the cutting points. Use a drill to make holes at the corners to be cut, then use a jigsaw to make the cuts. Insert soundproofing material in the passenger side partitions. Install the metal support structure following the attached instructions. Mount the supports under the body and install the covers by passing them over the supports through the holes just made. Secure the side step to the supports by tightening the bolts located underneath. Tighten the bolts well and reassemble all the covers. Repeat the same operation on the driver's side.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
