REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)
NOTE: The moulding will be damaged during the
removal process and therefore the glass and
mouldings assembly cannot be re-used.
CAUTION: Gloves and protective eyewear
should be worn at all times.
1. Place covers on the rear parcel shelf, seats and
rear quarter panels.
2. Remove the heated rear glass wiring connectors.
3. Remove rear interior trim panels surrounding rear
windscreen. For additional information refer to
Section 501-08.
4. Prepare to remove the rear glass by applying
masking tape to the body in line with the glass
edges. This will help to protect the vehicle
paintwork should the cutting tool used in removal
slip or cut through the urethane.
CAUTION: When cutting the urethane
near the corners of the glass, cut inwards
from the corners to avoid vehicle bodywork
damage.
5. Cut the urethane around the perimeter of the
glass, on the inside of the vehicle, using a sharp
long-bladed knife.
6. Attach suction cups to the rear glass and lift it
clear of the aperture.

windshield long or short installation procedures.
