SUBJECT: TEMPLATE FOR THE REMOVABLE TRAILER HITCH
APPLICATION: 1989 9000 5-DOOR MODELS
Some of the installation instructions for removable trailer hitch (P/N 02 72 054) do not contain the cutting template required for 1989 9000 5-door models. The 1989 template is included in recently packaged trailer hitch kits. This bulletin contains the 1989 9000 template and a procedure on how to use it.
1. Photocopy the attached template. Cut out the template.
NOTE
If applicable, remove the rear valance stiffener and modify it to allow installation of the trailer hitch. Reinstall the stiffener with the existing clips.

3. Tape the template to the bumper.
4. Use a razor blade or knife to cut the hash-marked area on the template. Cut deep enough to mark the bumper cover (Figure 2).
