4. Installation Instructions
Follow these general guidelines for installing the fasteners. Specific vehicle repair manuals should be consulted for detailed procedures.
4.1. Installing Extruded U-nuts and Body Bolts
Extruded U-nuts are designed to provide a threaded receptacle for bolts, often used on thin panels or edges. The body bolts are then threaded into these U-nuts.
- Identify the mounting location for the U-nut. Ensure the panel edge or hole aligns with the U-nut's design.
- Slide the U-nut onto the panel edge or into the designated opening until it is securely seated. The U-nut should grip the panel firmly.
- Align the component to be fastened (e.g., splash shield) with the U-nut's threaded hole.
- Insert a body bolt through the component's hole and into the U-nut.
- Tighten the body bolt using an appropriate wrench or socket. Avoid over-tightening to prevent stripping the threads or damaging the U-nut/panel.

4.2. Installing Plastic Push Clips
Plastic push clips are designed for quick and easy installation, providing a secure hold for various trim and panel components.
- Ensure the receiving hole is clean and free of debris.
- Align the push clip with the hole in the panel or component.
- Insert the pointed end of the clip into the hole.
- Apply firm, even pressure to the head of the clip until it clicks into place and sits flush with the surface. This expands the clip's prongs behind the panel, securing it.
- To remove, a trim removal tool may be required to pry the clip out without damage.

6. Maintenance
The metal components of this kit are designed to be corrosion-resistant, ensuring durability in various environmental conditions. Regular inspection of all fasteners during routine vehicle maintenance is recommended to ensure they remain securely in place and are free from damage or excessive wear. Replace any damaged or missing fasteners promptly to maintain the integrity of your vehicle's underbody components.
7. Troubleshooting
Most issues related to these fasteners can be resolved by ensuring proper selection and installation.
- Fastener does not fit: Double-check the compatibility list and compare the dimensions of the provided fasteners with your vehicle's original parts. Ensure you are using the correct type of fastener (U-nut, bolt, or push clip) for the specific application.
- Fastener is loose after installation: Ensure the fastener is fully seated and tightened to the appropriate specification (for bolts). For push clips, ensure they are fully pushed in until they click. Excessive wear on the receiving hole may prevent a secure fit, requiring repair of the hole or a slightly larger fastener if available.
- Component rattling or vibrating: This may indicate a loose or missing fastener. Inspect all relevant attachment points and replace or re-secure any compromised fasteners.
