GrilleGuy.com, LLC Installation Instructions and Care guide Nissan Altima 2002-2004
Thanks again for purchasing your custom grille insert from the GrilleGuy. The following are some general guidelines that will simplify the installation process and make owning your Grille Guy grille an enjoyable experience. ? ? ? Always place the head of the cable ties behind the grille for a cleaner more custom look. You may have to access the rear of the grille opening from beneath the hood or from beneath the car. Occasional use of an aluminum polish will give your grille a brilliant shine Hardware list: 1 perforated aluminum grille insert 6 weather resistant nylon zip ties

rubberized trim gasket

Installation Procedure: Step 1 Place the grille inside the opening. The grille should conform to the center opening on the car and fit snugly. This will actually provide the support for the grille. Step 2 - Use a pencil or magic marker to mark the holes where you want to route the zip ties. On the Altima , the zip ties will attach to the OEM grille slats. Step 3 Route a zip tie through an opening in the grille (from the back) and then through the front of the grille via an adjacent hole. Unless you have tiny hands, you may need to attach a second zip tie to the end of the first to add length. Step 4 - Wrap the zip ties around or thru the OEM grille slates. Now, complete the zip tie loop by attaching the second (or third) zip tie back to the first. Go ahead and push the zip tie tail end thru the back of the grille and out the front. This way you will be able to pull tight from the front side. Loosely fasten the zip tie, do not tighten at this point. Repeat steps 3 & 4 for the other sides. Step 5 Go back and secure each zip tie by pulling slightly on each one. Use an alternating pattern. This will ensure the grille is pulled in evenly and has a secure even fit. Do not over tighten, it is possible to damage the grille insert during this step. Clip off excess cable material.
