The ACC system is critical to the driver and passenger's safety. While this item allows the user to install the ACC when they have an aggressive frame-cut bumper, it may not operate as intended by the factory. While ensuring the ACC is perpendicular to the ground is a good starting point, it is vital that it is properly calibrated by a knowledgeable technician to avoid issues with the ACC system which can lead to improper application of the brakes or accelerator. |

Cutting the Radiator Shroud
- Mark out the top corner of the grill shrouds top passenger-side corner. You'll want to mark it with tape or a permanent marker then remove the corner. This allows you to get in and attach the electrical connector much more easily.
- On the passenger's side of the upper radiator support you'll drill a hole centered vertically and horizontally on the trapezoid shape on the right side. This hole should be close to .5" from the back side. When trying to determine the center point of the shape the back side is 1.65" and the front is .925", so if you mark the center point front and back you should be able to draw a line front to back to find the correct positioning.
- From there try to center the second hole between the two support ribs and parallel from the front of the car. The dimensions aren't as critical since the holes are slotted.
- With the second hole drilled loosely bolt in the bracket to get an idea of where the third hole will go before drilling that hole. You'll use the remaining 6 flat washers along with the remaining hex bolts and nuts.
Final Setup
- With the assembly back in the car slide it around in order to get it as parallel to the vehicle as possible. If you notice it more sensitive to vehicles on the left or right, you may want to adjust it towards the opposite side.
- Use the provided bubble level to get the unit as vertical as possible.
- While this procedure should get you close to the correct calibration, you'll likely need to have it properly calibrated in order to ensure it works properly and safely.
