Rear Window Replacement

  1. Attach the upper rubber dam (A), the side rubber dams (B), the upper clips (C), and the fasteners (D) with adhesive tape to the inside face of the rear window (E) as shown. Before installing the upper clips, apply primer to the area where the adhesive tape will be applied to the inside face of the windshield:
    • First attach the upper rubber dam, then attach the side rubber dams around the edge of the rear window. Be sure the top of the side rubber dam contacts with the bottom of the upper rubber dam. If necessary, cut the excess rubber dams.
    • Be sure the upper clips and the fasteners line up with the alignment marks (F).
    • Be sure the convex portion (G) of the left and right clips face toward the right.
    • Be careful not to touch the rear window where adhesive will be applied.
