Removal Procedure

The body side blackout transfers will require removal of all windows in the area of the transfer. The forward transfers will require the removal of the front body side windows. The rearward transfers will require the removal of the front and the rear body side windows.

  1. Remove the interior trim, as needed, in order to ease window removal.
  2. Remove the swing-out and/or stationary window(s). Refer to WINDOW REPLACEMENT - SWING OUT in Stationary Windows.
  3. Remove the body side swing-out window weather-strip, if equipped. Refer to WEATHERSTRIP REPLACEMENT - SWING OUT WINDOW in Stationary Windows.

    Important:  Apply all transfers in a clean environment where dust or fibers will not interfere with proper adhesion.

  4. Use a heat gun or other suitable tool in order to heat the transfer and slowly peel the transfer from the body.
