Do not substitute the mirrored side merely because the visible cover shape appears similar.

Installation and System Testing Guidance

During trial fitting, compare the installed height with the opposite side, check the headlamp lens receives an even spray, and complete a final visual check under even lighting. Before returning the vehicle to service, transfer reusable clips only after checking their condition, check the system for leaks after reconnection, and support the bumper cover while accessing the hidden actuator.

Receiving Inspection

When AD02010-009 arrives, receiving staff should compare the supplied side with the vehicle repair order, check painted or primed surfaces under neutral lighting, and inspect projecting pins before placing the item on a hard bench. Before workshop release, confirm the nozzle outlet is clean and unobstructed, photograph the received item if the vehicle fitment is still pending, document any shortage before the receiving inspection is closed, and inspect the rear locator shape without forcing any movable section. Complete the inspection by ensuring that staff compare the visible surface texture with the ordered specification, match the item label to the purchase order and OE reference, and compare connector depth and hose angle with the retained original part.
