2009 Toyota Matrix Antenna Cable Parts Q&A

• Q: How to install the antenna cable sub-assembly without a sliding roof on 2009 Toyota Matrix?

  A: Begin the antenna cord sub-assembly installation by placing tape on specified positions to secure the cord to roof headlining assembly which should start from the vehicle's front position. When tape adhesion becomes weak you should apply packing tape to provide a secure fastening of the cord. Place tape at the right corner section on the antenna cord according to markings and shorten its length by folding the cord inward. The installation with its sliding roof needs you to activate all three clamps before applying tape according to the documented method. The next step includes roof headlining assembly installation, visor holder fitting, rear assist grip assembly together with front assist grip sub-assembly. Both side operations should mirror each other accordingly. Install the required components including visor assemblies, sunroof opening trim moulding, room light assemblies, map light assemblies, inner rear view mirror cover, roof side inner garnish, quarter pillar garnish, side deck trim panel assemblies, rear combination light service covers, luggage compartment trim hooks, luggage hold belt striker assemblies, rear seat components and various garnish and trim pieces then connect both sides of rear seat 3-point type belt assemblies. The installation procedure should continue with jack assembly tasks and deck boards then move to install the tonneau cover assembly and rear seatback assemblies and headrest assemblies. Afterward, pillar garnishes and door opening trim Weather Strips and scuff plates need to be added along with the combination meter assembly and meter hood sub-assembly and instrument cluster finish panels. The last steps include adjusting the spiral cable followed by installing the steering wheel assembly and steering pad alongside connecting the negative battery terminal while conducting inspections on the steering wheel center point and SRS warning light.
