    Default side scuff pads

    I tried to install the BRP scuff pads for my wife. The come with a rubber gasket that must be installed first. After about 2 hours, i gave up to have a drink. Has anyone else installed these. Any tips.

    My husband is doing mine today. The tech at the dealer gave him a heads up about the difficulty of keeping the rubber gasket in place, so he used some spray adhesive to hold them in place. I'll find out tonight how the install went. He put the adhesive on sitting in the den watching TV last night and didn't seem to have much trouble, just a little overspray which he was going to wipe off as soon as they set. I'll let you know his verdict.

    start were the corner is split and slowly work your way around it the rubber gasket only installs on one way the gasket folds splits goses together at the corner rear of the scuff pad the key is take your time and make sure the rubber gasket lip goses under the plastic it may take you a couple of trys

    Michael had no problems after glueing the gasket on and letting it sit overnight. He confirmed that it went well and the glue process made all the difference.
