Introduction

Wherever a panel, closure or component is renewed, refitted or reset, the factory specifications for clearance (gap) and alignment (profile) MUST be attained.

There is no distinction between the importance of visual and operational characteristics; all conditions must be satisfied so that the vehicle looks and operates to the satisfaction of both design intent and the customer.
