Installation






INSTALLATION

The temperature of the vehicle should be at least 21°C (70°F) before removing the stationary quarter/sliding door glass. Butyl sealer becomes more pliable at high temperatures.


The stationary glass fence should be cleaned of all old butyl sealer.

1. Apply a 6 mm (0.25 in.) butyl tape around perimeter of glass assembly encapsulation track. Ensure that the butyl tape is wrapped around the mounting studs.

2. Place the glass into the opening and insert mounting studs through holes in fence.

3. Install nuts to hold stationary glass to fence.


CAUTION: Tighten nuts to 3.4 Nm (30 in. lbs.) torque in the sequence indicated. Do not over torque, or glass breakage may result (Figure 1).

4. Water test before installing interior trim.

5. Install interior trim.

6. Verify alignment and flushness.
