(5) Start the hot knife blade (special tool C-4386)
between the glass and the urethane. Next, cut the
adhesive as close to the glass edge as possible (Fig.
1). Allow as much adhesive to remain on the pinch-
weld flange as possible.For best cutting results,
clean the knife blade frequently with steel wool
while the blade is hot.
(6) Remove the windshield glass from the body
opening.
(7) After the hot knife blade has cooled, clean the
blade with solvent and a clean cloth.
INSTALLATIONÐSHORT METHOD
Normally, after a replacement windshield glass is
installed, the rearview mirror bracket also requires
installation.Do not install the bracket until after
the windshield glass installation is completed.
(1) Inspect the windshield opening pinchweld
flanges. Prime any bare spots with urethane primer.
Allow a minimum of 18 minutes for dry time.
(2) Inspect urethane bead for high spots. Level
bead by shaving off high spots with a razor knife.
(3) Clean the outer edge of windshield glass with
naphtha or an equivalent product.
(4) Prime outer perimeter of interior side of glass 16
mm (5/8 inch) from edge. Use a wipe-off type urethane
primer and wipe glass dry after primer application.
NOTE: The reveal molding has an adhesive applied
to the windshield contact surface to help secure the
molding to the windshield during the installation
procedure.
(5) Apply the molding to the windshield:
²With the molding at room temperature, press the
molding onto the windshield corners.
²From corner to corner, work the molding to the
center of each side. (Some stretching of the mold-
ing may be required during this procedure.)(6) Place the glass on the pinchweld flanges and
inspect for gaps in the urethane. Gaps in excess of 3
mm (1/8 inch) must be filled with urethane.
(7) Adjust windshield glass position until it is
aligned with the flanges and adhesive. Next, make
alignment marks on the glass and body.
(8) Remove the windshield glass and position it on
a flat surface.
CAUTION: Avoid spilling or dripping primer on
painted surfaces. Clean spills or drips immediately.
The primer will damage the paint if it remains on
the surface for any length of time.
(9) If the replacement windshield glass does not
have blackout primer:
²Attach a 25 mm (1 in) wide masking tape band
around the interior side of the glass 16 mm (5/8
in) from the edge of the glass.
²Do not attach tape along the bottom of the glass
andattach it only to the inside of the glass.

(6) If the pinchweld flanges require repair, remove
the windshield glass and straighten, align, or repair
the flange(s) as necessary.
(7) Position the windshield in the opening and in-
spect the windshield fit again. Mark the windshield
final position on the glass and body with a wax pen-
cil (or use masking tape). The marks (or masking
tape) will be used for installation alignment refer-
ence.
(8) If the replacement windshield does not have
blackout primer:
²Attach a 25-mm (1-in) wide masking tape band
around the interior side of glass 16 mm (5/8 in)
from edge of glass (Fig. 2).
²Do not attach tape along the bottom of the glass
and attach only to the inside of glass.
²Thoroughly mix and apply blackout primer to the
16 mm (5/8 in) surface area around the interior
side of the glass (Fig. 4).
²Allow the primer to dry for at least 10-12 minutes.
(9) Apply a small amount of adhesive to the bot-
tom support spacers and attach the support spacers
to the bottom of the windshield, 170 mm inboard
from the outer windshield edge (Fig. 6).
(10) Cut the urethane applicator nozzle (Fig. 7).
(11) Apply a continuous bead of urethane to the
surface area with blackout primer on the interior
side of glass. The bead should be 9-mm (3/8-in) wide
by 12.7-mm (1/2-in) deep for best results.CAUTION: Be prepared to install the windshield im-
mediately after applying the adhesive, as the adhe-
sive will begin to cure in less than 10 minutes.
(12) Align the windshield with the wax pencil in-
stallation alignment reference marks (or the tape
strips). Position the windshield on pinchweld flanges
and spacers.
(13) Force the windshield inward just enough to
wet-out and set the urethane. Use care to avoid ex-
cessive squeeze-out of adhesive.
(14) Water test the windshield with a water spray
after installation. Do not direct high pressure
streams of water directly at the urethane. If any
leaks are detected, apply urethane as necessary.
(15) If used, remove the masking tape from the in-
ner surface of glass.
(16) Install all components and clean the vehicle. If
necessary, refer to the installation procedures.
(17) Open the vehicle windows to prevent interior
pressure while the urethane adhesive is curing.If
not vented, pressure in the interior of vehicle
will interfere with glass bonding.
(18) Install the rearview mirror on the bracket.
