GENERAL INFORMATION
All sunroofs are equipped with drain tubes that are
located in the A, B or C-pillars. The drain tubes
must be kept open to prevent water from entering
the passenger compartment.
LUBRICATION
(1) Lubricate cables with Lubriplate or equivalent
when cables are replaced. (2) Periodically clean dirt from guide rail covers.
DRAIN TUBES
² Inspect the drain holes, located in the trough
around the sunroof opening to verify they are clear.
Inspection should be performed at least once a year
or when problems are suspected. If drain hose or
tubes are plugged, use compressed air or blunt flexi-
ble wire to clear them. If tubes cannot be cleared,
they must be repaired.
² The lower ends of the rear drain tubes are located
in the rear quarter panel drop wells. To clear rear
drain tubes, use compressed air or blunt flexible wire
from the lower ends of the tubes.

WINDSHIELD
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE VEHICLE FOR AT
LEAST 24 HOURS AFTER WINDSHIELD INSTALLA-
TION. WINDSHIELD MAY NOT PERFORM PROPERLY
IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION IF URETHANE AD-
HESIVE IS NOT SUFFICIENTLY CURED. REFER TO
MANUFACTURER OF URETHANE BEING USED FOR
CURING TIME SPECIFICATIONS. WHEN INSTALLING GLASS, DO NOT USE URE-
THANE ADHESIVE AFTER DATE ON PRODUCT HAS
EXPIRED. SAFETY AND QUALITY OF REPAIR
WOULD BE QUESTIONABLE. DO NOT USE URETHANE ADHESIVE OR PRIMER IN
CLOSED WORK AREA, PERSONAL INJURY CAN RE-
SULT. PROTECT SKIN FROM COMING IN CONTACT WITH
URETHANE, PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT. WEAR EYE AND HAND PROTECTION WHEN
WORKING WITH GLASS, PERSONAL INJURY CAN
RESULT.
CAUTION: Protect all painted or trimmed surfaces
from coming in contact with urethane or primers,
damage will result. Do not damage painted surfaces when removing
mouldings or cutting urethane around windshield.
It is difficult to salvage a windshield during the
removal operation. The windshield is part of the struc-
tural support for the roof. The urethane bonding used
to secure the windshield to the fence is difficult to cut
or clean from any surface. If the mouldings are set in
urethane, it would also be unlikely they could be
salvaged. Before removing the windshield, check the
availability of the windshield and mouldings from the
parts supplier.
WINDSHIELD REMOVAL
(1) Remove inside rear view mirror.
(2) Remove cowl cover.
(3) Remove windshield mouldings using a suitable
hook tool and trim stick (Fig. 1). (4) Cut urethane bonding from around windshield
using a suitable sharp cold knife. A pneumatic cutting
device can be used if available (Fig. 2). (5) Separate windshield from vehicle.
WINDSHIELD INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Open the left front door glass before
installing windshield to avoid pressurizing the pas-
senger compartment if a door or the trunk lid is
slammed before urethane bonding is cured. Water
leaks can result.
