Windshield

Removal

1. Pre-inspect vehicle with customer

present or with pre-inspection worksheet.

Note all damage to exterior,

interior, and mechanical devices pertaining

to windshield replacement.

See The Seven Steps of Installation

step 1 for further information.

2. Double check for correct glass

parts, moldings, and miscellaneous

supplies.

3. Put on all personal protection

equipment (PPE) to reduce injury.

4. Protect the vehicle interior and

exterior surfaces from possible damage.

See The Seven Steps of Installation

step 2 for further information.

5. As parts are removed from the vehicle,

place them in an area where they

will not be damaged or misplaced.

6. Disconnect the antenna to the right

of the mirror. Disconnect the wiring

harness from the rear of the mirror.

Disconnect the wiring from the GPS

antenna. Loosen the 25T torx set

screw in the base of the mirror.

Note: According to the Buick parts

department, if the glass is purchased

from the dealer, the GPS antenna

comes with the glass. The GPS antenna

is held in place with adhesive tape

and may be able to be removed and

reattached with double-sided tape.

7. Remove the overlapping wipers by

removing the nut caps and removing

the 15 mm nuts underneath. The driver

side wiper is above the passenger

side.

8. Remove the cowl by releasing and

removing the seven retainers at the

leading edge. Remove the corner

retainers. Remove the Phillips screw

from the water diverter near the

fender area.

9. The three-sided molding is of rigid

construction and will most likely need

to be replaced. It is not encapsulated.

10. Prior to removing the glass from

the vehicle, remove any debris from

between the glass and the body.

11. Cut out glass part with tools of

choice.

12. Attach vacuum cups to the outside

surface of the glass after wiping the

surface clean.

13. Dry-set the new glass and create

alignment markings.

14. Remove all but 1-2 mm (1/16 inch)

of existing adhesive from the pinchweld

area.

Caution: Do not touch or contaminate

the existing adhesive once it is

trimmed.

Installation

It is absolutely necessary to use an adhesive

system. Do not mix products.

This can include, but is not limited to,

preps, primers, cleaners, and adhesive.

Follow all installation procedures recommended

by the vehicle or adhesive

manufacturer.

Note: Depending on the technician’s

decision on where to apply the adhesive,

pinchweld or glass, steps 2 and 6

may be reversed to allow proper time

for the primers and preps to dry.

1. Remove safety gloves and put on

nitrile gloves.

2. Apply metal primer to any exposed

paint and/or scratches caused by the

removal process. Allow to dry thoroughly

according to adhesive manufacturer’s

recommendations.

3. Clean the glass with a lint-free disposable

cloth.

4. Attach the three-sided molding to

the glass edge.

5. Remount the GPS antenna if

removed.

6. Apply any or all preps and/or

primers to the bonding surface of the

glass. Allow to dry thoroughly.

7. Apply a V bead of adhesive to the

glass or pinchweld. Make sure that the

height of the V and the size of the bead

is consistent with the vehicle manufacturer’s

requirements.

8. Set the glass using vacuum cups and

apply pressure to assure contact is

made between the two bonding surfaces.

Do not apply too much pressure.

9. Check for leaks with leak detector

or water.

10. Re-install all other parts in reverse

order.

11. Clean and detail vehicle.

12. Post-inspect the vehicle. See The

Seven Steps of Installation step 7 for

further information.
