- 1). Place covers on the hood of the vehicle to help protect the paint work while replacing the windshield.
- 2). Use a screwdriver to remove one of the two screws which secure the rearview wing-mirrors to each of their bases. This will allow you to slide the mirrors away from the bases.
- 3). Use a sharp blade to cut away the rubber seal around the edges of the windshield. Pull the seal away with your hand as you cut it.
- 4). Enter the vehicle, and carefully press the windshield out of the frame. Have someone on hand outside the vehicle to help support the weight of the windshield. Place a thin layer of sealant around the edges of the new windshield.
- 5). Attach the new gasket to the windshield; the heavy side should be on the inside and the slit on the outside. Tie a nylon cord around the outer groove of the windshield.
- 6). Position the new windshield in the frame. Press it in place for a few minutes to allow a seal to set. Pull the nylon cord along the frame inside the vehicle to allow the rubber lip to set in place. Clean the windshield and dashboard to prevent any debris from getting in the vents. Reattach the wing mirrors by sliding them onto their bases and reinstalling the previously removed screw.
