8. Check the body flange for deformation.
INSTALLATION
1. Using a knife or the special tool (09861-31200), cut the old sealant smoothly to a thickness of about 2 mm (0.08 in.) on the bonding surface
around the entire windshield flange.
CAUTION: Be careful not to remove more adhesive than necessary, and also not to damage the paintwork on the body surface with the
knife. If the paintworks damaged, repair the damaged area with touch-up paint.
2. Clean the body bonding surface with a sponge dampened in alcohol, or wax and grease remover.
3. Install the windshield glass spacer at the locations as shown in the illustration below.
4. Center the new windshield glass in the opening. Mark the location by scribing lines across the glass and body with a grease pencil at the four
points as shown.
5. Evenly apply a light coat of glass primer to the windshield glass and then let it dry for 1 to 15 minutes.
NOTE:
-
Do not apply body primer to the glass.
-
The primer strengthens the adhesive, so be sure to apply fit evenly around the entire circumference.
Also, an application too thick will weaken the adhesive.
-
Never touch the primed surface with your hand. If you do, the adhesive may not bond to the glass properly, causing a leak after the windshield
is installed.
-
Keep water, dust, and abrasive materials away from primed surface.
