Turn each trunk lid bumper until the height shown in 
the drawing is reached. If the trunk lid panel height 
on one side is different from that on the other side 
(even after the trunk lid bumpers have been adjusted 
to the height indicated in the drawing), turn the trunk 
lid bumper(s) slightly to make fine adjustments to the 
trunk lid panel height
NOTE: When the bumper is new, one full turn of the 
trunk lid bumper changes the height approximately 3 
mm. Turn it clockwise to reduce height. Turn it anti-
clockwise to increase height
