Assembling the outer roof and rear window

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Saab 9-3 and 2010 Saab 9-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Change or touch up the window frame if it is damaged.
  1. Fit the rear window seal. Make sure the joint in the seal is located in the middle at the top of the rear window.
  2. Lay the rear window in the outer roof frame and put the loose frame on top.
  3. Secure the frame and outer roof to the center marking of the respective part.
  4. Fit the clip on each side. Use 30 12 598 CIRCLIP PLIERS  and open the clip. Insert the clips at the locations marked on the frame.
    WARNING: Use protective goggles as the clip can fly off the pliers.

    Do not press the clips fully onto the frames before the headlining has been fitted on the inner frame.
