Removal of AE111 Trueno Quarter Glass

[xsspeed]

I have a guy picking this up tonight, so need to remove for car,

Is there anything I need to look out for when removing the glass, as from the looks of this diagram, there is just a clip/fastener and the glass just slots into place.



Cheers
Steve

Bump, anyone?

Am trying to get it out now, is harder than I thought with a stuffed arm

[Bling]

Can't say i've taken one out, but they look to be well in there so it might be glued as well?

Should have put "buyer to remove" in the auction

[xsspeed]

yeah, should of started an auction

it is well in there, have said come back on weekend, will give it a decent go. might try the other side 1st incase I smash it

They are glued in,cut them out from the inside(remove interior panels first),mouldings etc are fitted into the glass first then bonded(glued) into the window opening.

Cheers, just what I needed confirmed

I'm guessing the car will be scrapped at some stage?

If so, use a grinder and cut around the window and hand them the window with 50mm of car frame still stuck to the window

there is a special tool if its glued in like windscreens thin wire used as a saw

A good sharp craft knife will cut the black sealant stuff, might take a bit, but patients may be needed.

Lol actually thought of cutting the metal around the glass, but at this stage I am trying to avoid cutting the car, incase I can sell the shell to someone

I will go the craft knife route, always have success with windscreens this way (except for new ones)

Never had much luck with the wire and cork style 'saw'

[xsspeed]

Well, that was a b*tch
