WINDSHIELD
DESCRIPTION
The windshield is attached to the window frame
with urethane adhesive. The urethane adhesive is
applied cold and seals the surface area between the
window opening and the glass. The primer adheres
the urethane adhesive to the windshield.
It is difficult to salvage a windshield during the
removal operation. The windshield is part of the
structural support for the roof. The urethane bonding
used to secure the windshield to the fence is difficult
to cut or clean from any surface. If the moldings are
set in urethane, it would also be unlikely they could
be salvaged. Before removing the windshield, check
the availability of the windshield and moldings from
the parts supplier.
REMOVAL
Refer to the Safety Precautions in this section for
description of tools and adhesive systems that are
recommended for use in this procedure. (Refer to 23 -
BODY/STATIONARY GLASS - WARNING).

WINDSHIELD REMOVAL – EXTERIOR METHOD
The urethane adhesive holding the windshield to
the opening pinch weld (fence) can be cut using a
sharp cold knife from the exterior of the vehicle.
Using the cold knife method is effective if the wind-
shield is already broken. If the glass must be sal-
vaged, cutting the urethane adhesive from the
interior of the vehicle using a reciprocating or oscil-
lating power knife is recommended.
(1) Remove inside rear view mirror.
(2) Remove windshield wiper arms.
(3) Remove cowl cover.
(4) Remove A-pillar exterior molding.
(5) Remove A-pillar trim panels and side moldings.
(Refer

REMOVAL).
(6) Place protective covers over instrument panel
and hood.
(7) Using a sharp cold knife, cut urethane adhe-
sive holding the windshield to the A-pillars, roof
header and cowl pinch weld fences (Fig. 6). A power
cutting device can be used if available.
(8) Remove windshield from vehicle.
WINDSHIELD REMOVAL – INTERIOR METHOD
(1) Remove inside rear view mirror.
(2) Remove instrument panel top cover. (Refer to
23 - BODY/INSTRUMENT PANEL/INSTRUMENT
PANEL TOP COVER - REMOVAL).
(3) Remove A-pillar trim covers.
(4) Remove A-pillar exterior molding.
(5) Place protective covers over instrument panel
and hood.
(6) Using a reciprocating or oscillating power
knife, cut urethane adhesive holding the windshield
to the A-pillars, roof header and cowl pinch weld
fences. Refer to instructions provided with the equip-
ment being used.
(7) Remove windshield from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
Refer to the Safety Precautions in this section for
description of tools and adhesive systems that are
recommended for use in this procedure. (Refer to 23 -
BODY/STATIONARY GLASS - WARNING).
The urethane adhesive holding the windshield to
the opening pinch weld (fence) can be cut using a
sharp cold knife from the exterior of the vehicle.
Using the cold knife method is effective if the wind-
shield is already broken. If the glass must be sal-
vaged, cutting the urethane adhesive from the
interior of the vehicle using a reciprocating or oscil-
lating power knife is recommended.
CAUTION: Open the left front door glass before
installing windshield to avoid pressurizing the pas-
senger compartment. If a door is slammed before
urethane bonding is cured, water leaks can result.
Allow the urethane at least 24 hours to cure before
returning the vehicle to use.
To avoid stressing the replacement windshield, the
urethane bonding material on the windshield fence
should be smooth and consistent to the shape of
the replacement windshield. The support spacers
should be cleaned and properly installed on weld
studs or repair screws at bottom of windshield
opening.
(1) Place replacement windshield into windshield
opening and position glass in the center of the open-
ing against the compression spacers.
(2) Verify the glass lays evenly against the pinch
weld fence at the sides, top and bottom of the
replacement windshield. If not, the pinch weld fence
must be formed to the shape of the new glass.
(3) Remove replacement windshield from wind-
shield opening.

minutes drying time (Fig. 9).
(9) Using a razor knife, remove as much original
urethane as possible. Do not damage paint on wind-
shield fence.
(10) Apply pinch weld primer 19 mm (0.75 in.)
wide around the windshield fence. Allow at least
three minutes drying time.
