Warning

•  Using a razor with bare hands can cause injury. Always wear gloves when using a razor.

Caution

•  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.

6.  Cut away the old sealant using a razor or scraper so that 1—2 mm {0.04—0.079 in} thickness of sealant remains along the perimeter of the frame.

7.  If the sealant has come off completely in any one place, apply some primer after degreasing, and allow it approx. 30 min to dry. Then apply 2 mm {0.079 in}thickness of new sealant.

8.  Clean and degrease the bonding surface along the perimeter of the body.

9.  Apply body primer on the body as shown in the figure, then allow it to dry for approx. 30 min.

2.  If the sealant has come off completely in any one place, apply some primer after degreasing, and allow it approx. 30 min to dry. Then put on new sealant to create a 2 mm {0.08 in} layer.

3.  Clean and degrease an approx. 50.0 mm {1.97 in} wide strip around the circumference of the glass and the bonding area on the body.

4.  Insert the spacer into the body.
