4. Using an awl, make a hole through the adhesive from inside the car. Push piano wire through the hole, and wrap each end around a piece of wood.
5. With a helper on the outside, pull the piano wire back and forth in a sawing motion and carefully cut through the adhesive around the entire
windshield.
CAUTION:
-
Hold the piano wire as close to the windshield as possible to prevent damage to the body and dashboard.
-
Take care not to damage the vehicle identification number plate.
6. Cut the lower spacers and upper fastener away from the body with a knife; they are cemented in place.
NOTE: Replace the lower spacers with new ones whenever the windshield has been removed.
Installation
1. Scrape the old adhesive smooth with a knife to a thickness of about 2 mm (0.08 in.) on the bonding surface around the entire windshield flange.
NOTE:
-
Do not scrape down to the painted surface of the body; damaged paint will interfere with proper bonding.
-
Remove all traces of the lower spacer material from the body.
-
Mask off surrounding surfaces before painting.
2. Clean the body bonding surface with a sponge dampened in alcohol.
NOTE: After cleaning, keep oil, grease or water from getting on the surface.
3. If the old windshield is to be reinstalled, use a putty knife to scrape off all traces of old adhesive, then clean the windshield surface with alcohol
where new adhesive is to be applied.
NOTE: Make sure the bonding surface is kept free of water, oil and grease.
CAUTION: Avoid setting the windshield on its edges; small chips may later develop into cracks.
