4\. Place the battery into the cradle in the top case. The battery wires should be placed on the left side of the cradle.

5\. Slide the internal case and radar into the new case over the battery. Keep the wires to the left and be careful not to pinch the battery wires between the internal and top case.

Push the top case and radar together to compress the o-ring.
