Removal Procedure
Caution: If a window is cracked but still intact, crisscross the window with masking tape in order to reduce the risk of damage or
personal injury.
Important: Before cutting out a stationary window, apply a double layer of masking tape around the perimeter of the painted surfaces
and the interior trim.
1. Open the liftgate.
2. Remove the upper quarter trim.
Notice: In order to avoid damaging the antenna lead connector, follow these guidelines:
*
Use a plastic tool and carefully pry the connector from the window.
*
Do NOT pull on the connector, which may be stuck to the urethane adhesive or the headliner.
Disconnect the antenna lead located on the rear quarter window, if equipped.
Caution: Refer to Glass and Sheet Metal Handling Caution in Service Precautions.
Important: Keep the cutting edge of the tool against the window. Do this from inside the vehicle.
3. This will allow the urethane adhesive to be separated from the window.
*
Leave a base of urethane on the pinchweld flange.
*
The only suitable lubrication is clear water.
*
Use J 39032 or equivalent in order to remove the window.
4. If the original reveal molding on the quarter window is damaged it must be replaced.
