Withdrawal
1. Before removing the windshield, remove the upper seat belt bracket bolt and B-pillar trim.
2. Remove:
- 1) interior rear view mirror;
- 2) wiper arms;
- 3) fairing top cover.
3. Remove the windshield edging with a special tool (09861-31000).
Note. A border that has changed shape must not be reused.
4. Using a sharp drill, make a hole at the windshield bonding point.
5. Pass the string from inside the car through the hole.
6. Stretching the string in and out around the perimeter of the windshield, separate the adhesive layer.
Warning. Do not allow the string to touch the edges of the windshield.
7. Mark the glass and body with chalk if the glass is to be reinstalled.
8. Remove the windshield using a special tool (suckers).
Examination
1. Check the flanged surface of the body at the windshield installation site for deformations.
2. Check for damage to glass seal clamps and studs.
Installation
1. Using a knife or special tool, carefully scrape off the old filler to a thickness of about 2 mm on the surface around the entire perimeter of the windshield installation.
Warning. Do not damage the paint surface of the body with a knife.
2. Clean the contact surface of the body with the windshield with a sponge soaked in alcohol or a degreaser.
3. Install the windshield gasket.
4. Center the new windshield at the installation location on the body. Mark the position of the glass with transverse lines at four points.
5. Stick a rubber seal on the inner surface of the windshield around the entire perimeter.
6. Apply a thin coat of primer (for glass) on the outer surface of the seal.
Note:
- 1) Do not apply body primer.
- 2) Do not touch the primed surface with your hand.
- The adhesive may not fully adhere to the glass, causing water to flow through the glass.
7. Apply a thin coat of body primer at the windshield installation area. Glass should be installed 10 minutes after applying the primer.
8. Thoroughly mix all the sealant on the glass or metal plate together with a spatula. Before doing this, clean the glass or plate with a sponge and alcohol.
9. Put the glue into the chuck. Install in the gun and apply a layer of glue around the perimeter of the glass.
Note. The adhesive should be applied 5 minutes after applying the glass primer.
10. Using suction cups or a special tool (09861-31400), lower the glass to the landing site, align the marks made, and press it to the filler, installing the two bottom spacers to prevent the glass from sliding down.
11. Scrape or wipe off excess adhesive with a spatula or fine metal mesh.
Fill all cavities and voids around the windshield.
12. Check windshield for water leaks. Use a jet of cold water, however, be careful not to direct a powerful jet of water onto the fresh adhesive layer. Let the water run off the edges of the glass.
13. If there are leaks, apply filler to these places.
14. Install windshield edging. Reinstall the interior rearview mirror, fairing top cover and wiper arms.
