1. Figures 1, 2 and 4 show the hardware
needed; the handle for your windscreen
is already installed.
2. The bracket (Figure 2) has two
different size holes. Insert the well nut
(Figure 2) into the bracket so the flange
grabs the side of the bracket on the side
shown in Figure 2 (the inside of the 90
degree angle).
3. Push the narrow end of the well nut
through the glass. If it does not go all
the way through, thread the 8-23
capscrew into the narrow end of the
well nut and pull the nut until it brings
the bracket flush against the glass on
the opposite side. (Figure 3)
4. Remove the capscrew from the narrow
end and thread it through the flanged
end of the well nut – a few threads of
the capscrew should protrude through
the narrow end of the well nut.
5. Secure the caspscrew fully by
tightening a 8-23 nylock nut onto the
exposed threads of the 8-23 capscrew –
hold the capscrew in place by inserting
an Alan wrench into the capscrew head.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for both sides of the
windscreen.
7. Cut four pieces of the provided weather
stripping. Stack them into two pieces
by peeling the adhesive off two of them
and sticking them onto the nonadhesive side (the top) of the other two
adhesive pieces.

7. Stick those two adhesive pieces on
either side of the weather stripping
that’s on the underside of the light
bar – the two pieces should be spread
apart by the thickness of the
windscreen.
8. Line up the windscreen through the
back of the light bar, and push it up in
between the two small stacked pieces
of weather stripping applied to the
light bar in the previous step. Mark a
hole location in the light bar through
the open hole in the bracket – mark
holes on the inboard side of the light
bar for the passenger and driver ends
of the light bar.
9. Using a drill with a 3/8” bit, drill a
hole in the light bar. Start with a hole
approximately ½” deep.
10. Thread the nut insert, shown in
Figure 4, through the open hole in the
bracket on the windscreen.
11. Drive the nut insert into the light bar
using an Alan wrench. If the nut
insert does not go all the way in,
remove the insert and drill the hole a
bit deeper.
12. Repeat steps 8 and 9 on both sides.
13. Thread the large bolt shown in Figure
1 (indicated “to light bar”) into the
nut insert that you just drove into the
light bar. Tighten all bolts and nuts.
14. Remove the two stacked 1.5” pieces
of weather stripping from the light
bar. Cut four sections of the weather
stripping to the length of the
underside of the light bar. Stack the
weather stripping into two light-barlength strips and apply to the
underside of the light bar, one in front
and one behind the windscreen.
