1. When replacing the rear window glass,
temporarily set the rear window glass against the
body, and place a mating mark on the rear
window glass and body.
CAUTION
Leave the degreased parts for 3 or more minutes
to dry well, before starting on the next step. Do
not touch the degreased parts.
2. Use isopropyl alcohol to degrease the inside and outside of the rear window glass and the body
flanges.

•The primer strengthens the adhesive, so be
sure to apply it evenly around the entire cir

cumference. However, a too thick application
will weaken the adhesive.
•Do not touch the coated surface.
3. Soak a sponge in the primer, and apply evenly to the rear window glass and the body in the
specified places.
