Edge FWD V6-3.5L (2007)
Removal
WARNING: To prevent glass splinters from entering eyes or cutting hands, wear safety glasses and heavy gloves when cutting glass from the
vehicle. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the C-pillar, D-pillar and rear quarter trim panels.
2. NOTE: Lubricate the existing urethane adhesive with water to aid the special tool while cutting.
From inside the vehicle, using the special tool, cut the glass starting at the upper C-pillar and work down, across the D-pillar, then across the
bottom.
3. Remove the rear quarter window glass.
4. Using a soft brush or vacuum, remove any dirt or foreign material from the pinch weld.
Installation
CAUTION: When installing urethane-installed glass parts, the vehicle must not be driven until urethane has cured. Adequate cure time is
specified on the drive away chart for each urethane product as temperatures and humidity vary. Inadequate or incorrect curing can adversely
affect retention of the quarter window glass.
NOTE: For additional material guidelines, refer to the manufacturer's installation information.
1. Dry fit the rear quarter window glass to the existing urethane adhesive bead on the body pinch weld.
2. For a uniform fit, use the 2 alignment pins on the rear quarter window glass to align the rear quarter window glass in the opening.
3. Remove the rear quarter window glass.
4. NOTE: Avoid scratching the pinch weld. For minor scratches or exposed metal on the pinch weld, see the manufacturer's recommendations.
Using an appropriate tool, trim the urethane adhesive leaving a 1 mm (0.03 in) to 2 mm (0.07 in) base of original equipment urethane on the pinch
weld.
5. If installing the original rear quarter window glass, remove the excess urethane adhesive.
