INSTALLATION

Refer to the Safety Precautions in this section for

description of tools and adhesive systems that are
recommended for use in this procedure.

CAUTION: Open the left front door glass before
installing rear window to avoid pressurizing the
passenger compartment. If a door is slammed
before urethane bonding is cured, water leaks can
result.
Allow the urethane at least 24 hours to cure before
returning the vehicle to use.
To avoid stressing the replacement rear window,
the urethane bonding material on the rear window
fence should be smooth and consistent to the
shape of the replacement glass.

(1) Place replacement glass into rear window open-

ing.

(2) Verify the glass lays evenly against the pinch

weld fence at the sides, top and bottom of the
replacement rear window. If not, the urethane adhe-
sive remaining on the fence must be formed to the
shape of the new glass.

(3) Using a grease pencil, mark the glass and lift-

gate in several locations to aid installation.

(4)

Remove replacement glass from liftgate open-

ing.

(5) Position the rear window inside up on a suit-

able work surface with two padded, wood 10 cm by
10 cm by 50 cm (4 in. by 4 in. by 20 in.) blocks,
