Removal and Installation
REMOVAL
1. Remove the front pillar garnish. See: Body and Frame/Exterior Moulding / Trim/Service and Repair/Removal And Installation.
2. Remove the instrument side panel. See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Dashboard / Instrument Panel/Service and Repair/Component
Parts.
3. Apply protective tape around the opera window glass to protect the painted surface from damage.
-
If a opera window glass is to be reused, mark the body and the glass with mating marks.
4. Remove the opera window glass using piano wire or power cutting tool and inflatable pump bag.
WARNING:
When cutting the glass from the vehicle, always wear safety glasses and heavy gloves to help prevent glass splinters from entering your eyes
or cutting your hands.
CAUTION:
-
When a opera window glass is to be reused, do not use a cutting knife or power cutting tool.
-
Be careful not to scratch the glass when removing.
-
Do not set or stand the glass on its edge. Small chips may develop into cracks.
-
Clips are molded to the side window glass. Replace the clips with new ones if they are damaged when removing the side window glass.
INSTALLATION
-
Use a genuine NISSAN Urethane Adhesive Kit (if available) or equivalent and follow the instructions furnished with it.
-
While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will prevent the glass from being forced out by passenger room air pressure when
a door is closed.
-
The opera window glass must be installed securely so that the molding around glass is in position and leaves no gap.
-
Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time
varies with temperature and humidity.
