Nothing a little JB Weld can't fix...  Group: Members Posts: 263 Joined: 8-June 09 From: WA Member No.: 10,450 Region Association: Pacific Northwest  |
Hey guys so I was wondering if I could get some insight on windshield installation. I've read in the lupwalli threads that if u use the black rubber seal you need to paint the edges of the windshield so it doesn't show or something. Is this true? Also do u need to fill in all the clips holes with silicone or something? Do u also still need to use the butyl? Thanks for the info.

There are some threads about removal. They crack easy but I took one out by sitting in the seat and pushing out the windshield with my feet - after I ran a wire around the perimeter to cut the glue.
If it was valuble to you, I would talk to a glass guy or bodyshop. |
