Catalyst Heat Shields:

NOTE: The catalytic converter may have two cans. If shields on both cans are loose, four clamps (two for each) will be required.

^ Attach two band clamps to the catalytic converter or muffler as shown. Tighten to 7 Nm (60 in lb).
^ Align the clamp to secure the heat shield to the muffler or catalytic converter. Tighten the clamp to no more than 7 Nm (60 in lb).
^ Trim excess "ear" to approximately 25mm (1 inch).
