Installation instructions for the TriVision Car Docking Station 9.4 • 9.5 Determining the central axis of the vehicle Determine the central axis by measuring the width of the vehicle. Mark the central axis. This permits you to attach the mounting plate (B) centrally. Marking out the cutout for the mounting plate • Hold the mounting plate (B) in the correct position on the headliner. Ensure that it will subsequently be possible to screw the main attachment to the roof strut.
Installation instructions for the TriVision Car Docking Station 9.6 • Cutting out the cutout for the mounting plate Cut along the markings you made previously using a sharp knife. If the thickness of the headliner material exceeds 8 millimetres, it must be reduced to approx. 8 millimetres. Remove the required amount of material on the upper side of the headliner. It must be ensured that the part of the headliner overlapping the mounting plate does not have a thickness exceeding 8 millimetres. 9.
Installation instructions for the TriVision Car Docking Station 9.8 Marking the drill holes for the main attachment • Position the mounting plate (B) correctly between the headliner and the roof strut. • The two elevated recesses are used (elevated part against the roof strut) for subsequently screwing on the mounting plate (B). • Mark the position of the drill holes on the support strut. 9.
Installation instructions for the TriVision Car Docking Station 9.10 Determining the third attachment point • In vehicles without a sunroof, it is usually possible to attach the mounting plate (B) to a third point on the roof panel. • The third attachment point of the mounting plate (B) can be attached to the roof by using the double-sided adhesive tape, the threaded rod and the plates (D) included in the installation kit.
Installation instructions for the TriVision Car Docking Station 9.11 the mounting plate to the support struts • Drill holes with the correct diameter (for the sheet-metal screws being used) in the holes marked on the roof strut, see 9.8 on page 45. • Fasten the mounting plate (B) with at least two sheet-metal screws. Use the correct spacers as required (as determined under 9.9 on page 45). When drilling and then tightening the mounting plate, ensure that no damage is caused to the roof (e.g.
Installation instructions for the TriVision Car Docking Station 9.12 Preparing/fastening the mounting plate attachment point • There are two fastening options: 1. Use one of the plates (D) provided and attach the 8 mm plastic threaded rod using the washers and nuts provided. Counterhold the nuts when fastening. Secure the plate (D) to the roof using the double-sided adhesive tape provided. You must insert the threaded rod through the mounting plate (B) and then fasten it with the washers and nuts provided.
