WINDSHIELD AND BACK LIGHT GLASSES

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This vehicle uses two types of safety glass: (1) laminated safety plate, for the windshield, and (2) solid tempered
safety plate, for the back glass.
The windshield glass is one-piece and is directly retained in the windshield opening by the adhesive.
When replacing a cracked windshield glass, it is very important that the cause of the glass breakage be determined
and the condition corrected before a new glass is installed.  Otherwise, it is possible that a small obstruction or high
spot somewhere around the windshield opening will continue to crack or break the newly installed windshield.  This
is especially true when the strain on the glass caused by this obstruction is increased by such conditions as wind
pressures, extremes of temperature, motion of the vehicle, etc.  The procedure for removal of the windshield
applies to the complete windshield assembly.
