Installation
1. Scrape old adhesive smooth with a knife to a
thickness of about 2 mm (0.08 in) on the bonding
surface around the entire rear window flange.
NOTE:
• Do not scrape down to the painted surface of
the body; damaged paint will interfere with pro-
per bonding.
• Mask off surrounding surfaces before applying
primer.
2. Clean the body bonding surface with a sponge
dampened in alcohol.
NOTE: After cleaning, keep oil, grease or water
from getting on the surface.
3. If the old rear window is to be reinstalled, use a put-
ty knife to scrape off all traces of old adhesive, then
clean the rear window surface with alcohol where
new adhesive is to be applied.
NOTE: Make sure the bonding surface is kept free
of water, oil and grease.
CAUTION: Avoid setting the rear window on its
edges; small chips may later develop into cracks.
