The corrosion protection in the fender seam must be applied on all replacement parts, on which the attached seal is not already present.

–  Apply filler to the interior and exterior areas of the fender.
–  Once the filler has dried, apply and spread the Sealing Material -D 511 500 A2- in the wheel housing liner contact area (fender seam).
