Rear Gate Glass Replacement

Rear Gate Glass

REPLACEMENT

When replacing only the molding, perform work according to the following procedures. (when reusing the rear gate glass)

1. Remove the rear gate glass from the vehicle.
2. From the removed rear gate glass, completely remove the adhesive and molding.
3. Check the silver print (1) (2) (3) (4) of the rear gate glass on the passenger room side surface.







4. Clean the rear gate glass (passenger room side) molding adhesive surface (A), and apply primer.







5. Remove the backing paper of the molding, and match the silver print (1) and the end of the molding.







6. Match the corner of the molding to the corner of the glass end surface, and adhere the molding to be within the silver print (1) on both sides.

CAUTION:
- Apply the molding without pulling on it, while applying pressure.
- After applying, push on the molding lightly to affix securely.
- Temporarily mount the glass, and make sure that there are no gaps between the molding and the rear gate panel.

NOTE: When application of the molding is finished, if there is protrusion from the silver print (1) on the other side, cut with a razor blade so that the left and right are symmetric, and so that it fits between the silver print (1) and (2).

7. Apply primer to the rear gate glass seal adhesion surface (B).







8. Remove the backing sheet of the sticker, and apply the seal based on the positions of the silver print (3) and (4) of the rear gate glass (passenger room side).







CAUTION:
- Because the seal is applied on top of the molding, make sure to apply so that there is no gap at side face (C) of the molding.
- Apply so that the end of the seal does not protrude from the end of the glass. If it protrudes from the glass, reapply.
