•  If a door is opened or closed when all the window glass is closed, the resulting change in air pressure could cause the sealant to crack preventing the proper installation of the glass. Keep the door glass open until the quarter window glass installation is completed.

1.  Remove sealant along the perimeter of the glass using a razor or scraper. (when reusing the glass)

2.  Clean and degrease the ceramic part along the perimeter of the glass.
