Locate the V4 RND BLACK 4" grill. Using two cable
ties, secure the vanes so that they will not turn. See
Figure 8a and 8b. Use a length of the supplied weather
stripping under the lip of the grill to prevent air from
leaking after installation. Install the grill from the inside
of the duct, with the vanes pointing upward. Push the
duct and grill back into the hole from which it came.
With assistance from outside the truck, reach into the
luggage compartment and push the length of 4" duct
and one hose clamp over the grill. Push the duct over
the grill until the grill is tight up against the duct, then
tighten the clamp. Replace the duct, and tighten the
screws.

Find the metal custom plenum and the passenger
side window footwell.
Locate the four (4) V4 RND BLACK grills and line up
on the window footwell to mark for hole cutting. See
Figure 10. Use a 4" holesaw to cut the holes.
Line the anges of the plenum with the weather strip-
ping. See Figure 9. Place the plenum on the back of

carpet at the bottom of the plenum duct so that the
carpet will fold up.
Preparing for mounting the foot-
well and air plenum
Before the footwell is mounted back into the truck, the
cut out for the duct must be made to allow the duct
to extend below the bunk surface. Use the template,
as provided in Figure12a or 12b, to cut the hole. Use
a 1/8" bit to drill locator holes from under the bunk.
Go to the passenger side luggage door, and look up
to the rear corner of the bunk. See Figure 11. Find
the metal support that holds the bunk, and drill right
at the edge at the side of the truck, and towards the
rear of the truck.
Re-installing the Footwell
Gently insert the duct into the hole. Direct it down-
ward, while pushing the footwell toward the window.
Once it is all the way down, put the top ange of the
footwell behind the window fascia. Fasten the foot-
well to the wall and oor.
