How to Install Auto Parts
- 1). Adjust the ratchet to the right turn setting and select the proper-size socket to install parts such as spark plugs or radiator fluid holding tanks. Place the socket onto the retaining bolts or screws of these parts and turn until they are firm and secure.
- 2). Screw down headlights or light panels using a Phillips or flat-head screwdriver. Place the screwdriver onto the retaining screws and turn them clockwise until the light or panel is set and firm on the vehicle.
- 3). Employ the sockets and ratchets when installing interior auto parts such as seats, or the spare tire into the holding well.
- 4). Use the Allen wrenches or the screwdrivers when installing parts such as radios, heating panels or other panel-based interior parts.
- 5). Lubricate parts such as lug nuts or retaining bolts for tires or where there is metal to metal contact. Ratchets and sockets, or pliers, are used to screw these parts in securely.
