Bed Removal Question
 
I am getting ready to take my old bed off and put the replacement on. I have unplugged the wiring from the connector on the frame.

Is there a trick to getting all the wiring through that little grommet in the bed?

No tricks there if it is giving you problems give it a squirt of wd-40 or similar to lube it up and help it along. We do it all the time in the shop on things like door stoppers and gas lids, hood bumpers and stuff like that. It will help it move easier than you thought possible. Jim

The grommets are split so you can take the grommet off before removing the wire.

There is a grove around the rubber and it pops In the hole on the frame.
