  Step 17:  
  This step becomes time consuming so take your time. Using the razor blade carefully cut out around the molding of the installation kit. Then with the hair dryer running, briefly blow heat on the front of the install kit where you are working with the wood grain wrap. Do not heat the wrap too much or you will melt it. After heating it, gently pull back on the wrap and firmly press it to the install kit. Depending on what your wood graining these steps may vary. Please use the photos as your guide.
