Quarter Glass: Installation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Roll down the left and right front door glass and open the liftgate glass before installing quarter glass to avoid pressurizing the passenger compartment if a door is slammed before urethane is cured. Water leaks can result.
NOTE:
The quarter glass fence should be cleaned of all old butyl sealer. Do not grind sealer off the fence, the paint finish will be adversely affected.
- Apply 6 mm (0.25 in.) wide butyl tape around perimeter of the quarter glass (1) approximately 5 mm (0.2 in.) from the edge of the glass. Ensure the butyl tape is wrapped around the mounting studs.
- Place the quarter glass into the window opening (2) and insert mounting studs through the holes in the window fence.
- Install the nuts that secure the quarter glass to the window fence. Tighten the nuts to 4.5 N.m (40 in. lbs.).
- Install the headliner.
- Install the quarter panel trim (Refer to INSTALLATION ).
