Back Window Glass: Service and Repair
Backlite
BACKLITE
REMOVAL
CAUTION: It is difficult to salvage the backlite during the removal operation. The backlite is part of the structural support for the roof. The
urethane bonding used to secure the glass to the fence is difficult to cut or clean from any surface. Since the molding is set in urethane, it is
unlikely it would be salvaged. Before removing the backlite, check the availability from the parts supplier.
NOTE: The backlite is attached to the window frame with urethane adhesive. The urethane adhesive is applied cold and seals the surface area between
the window opening and the glass. The primer adheres the urethane adhesive to the backlite.
1. Roll down door glass.
2. Remove headliner (9).
3. On standard cab models remove the upper b-pillar trim (5), Refer to Trim Panel.
