INSTALLATION
WARNING: Allow the urethane at least 24 hours to
cure before returning the vehicle to use.
CAUTION: Roll down the left and right front door
glass and open the rear glass slider (if available)
before installing windshield to avoid pressurizing
the passenger compartment if a door is slammed
before urethane is cured. Water leaks can result.
The windshield fence should be cleaned of most of
its old urethane bonding material. A small amount of
old urethane, approximately 1 mm in height, should
remain on the fence. Do not grind off or completely
remove all old urethane from the fence, the paint fin-
ish and bonding strength will be adversely affected.
