7. NOTE: Be sure to use the same brand and cure-rate products for the urethane adhesive and glass primer. Do not mix different brands of urethane
adhesive and glass primer. Refer to the Material Chart in this procedure.
If installing a new windshield glass, apply glass primer according to manufacturer's instructions. Allow at least 6 minutes to dry.
8. Install the upper windshield weatherstrip.
9. Cut the urethane adhesive applicator tip to specification.

-
Make sure there are no gaps in the urethane adhesive bead.
11. WARNING: Do not drive vehicle until the urethane adhesive seal has cured. Follow urethane adhesive manufacturer's curing directions.
Inadequate or incorrect curing of the urethane adhesive seal will adversely affect glass retention. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in serious injury to vehicle occupant(s).
NOTICE: Before positioning the windshield glass, open vehicle windows to prevent the air pressure of closing doors from affecting the
urethane adhesive bond.
Using the alignment marks made previously, position the windshield glass on the pinch weld.
12. NOTE: The urethane adhesive must cure for a minimum of one hour before testing for air or water leaks.
After the urethane adhesive has cured, check the windshield glass seal for air or water leaks through the urethane adhesive bead and add urethane
adhesive as necessary.
13. NOTE: Be sure the moldings seat completely.
