2. Remove both side panels by turning the three quarter-turn latches. Pivot the panels away from the sled and pull out to remove.
3. Disconnect the two hood latches.
4. Lift the hood up slightly to gain access to the connector underneath.
5. Disconnect the connector, and remove the hood from the sled.
6. Remove the windshield by freeing the windshield pegs from the rubber grommets. Pull the windshield from the rear corners first.
7. Place the hood upside down on a flat surface, and remove the three fasteners securing the headlight with a 8mm socket.
8. Remove the two fasteners that secure the hood trim with a T25 Short TORX® socket, and remove both pieces.
9. Remove the six fasteners that secure the hood cap to the hood with a T25 TORX® socket.
10. Remove the edge clip holding the wiring screen harness in place.
11. Carefully remove the hood cap.
12. Remove the friction hinges with a small hole punch.
13. Unlock the display door, and walk out the display and display door.
14. Begin assembling the 7S Display by using isopropyl alcohol to clean the area on the top inside of the hood cap labeled "GPS."
15. Remove the adhesive backing on the GPS antenna, and install the antenna, following the orientation marks on the top inside of the hood cap. Press down firmly to adhere the antenna.
16. Remove the dust cap from the area on top of the hood cap where the V2V antenna will be installed with a flathead screwdriver.
17. Once the cap is removed, use isopropyl alcohol to clean the area where the V2V antenna will be installed.
18. Install the V2V antenna by removing the red adhesive protector with a flathead screwdriver and tighten the nut until fully seated.

24. Install the wire cover on the display door, using the bottom two provided fasteners. Ensure the tab of the wire cover is installed into the holder on the back of the display, and with a T30 TORX® socket, torque the fasteners to 53 in-lbs (6 Nm).
25. Secure the hood harness to the tab on the display wire cover with the edge clip, and route the harness and the V2V antenna out of the notch in the rear of the wire cover.
26. Assemble the new display door and display assembly onto the hood cap, and align the hinges with the new friction hinges.
27. Once aligned, install the new friction hinges, which should slide in until they are flush with the edge of the hood cap. Large pliers may be used to help slide the hinges into place.
