T he windshield is a one-piece type and is retained
in the windshield opening
weatherstrip. See figure 2D-13.
W hen replacing a cracked windshield glass, it is
very im p o rta n t that the cause o f the glass breakage be
determ ined and the condition corrected before a new
glass is installed. Otherwise, it is highly possible that a
small obstruction or high spot somewhere around the
windshield o pening will continue to crack or break the
newly installed windshield especially w hen the strain on
the glass caused by this obstruction is increased by such
conditions as wind pressures, extremes of temperature,
motion o f the vehicle, etc.
