Middle of winter? What better time to remove a not leaking rear screen and swap in a breezy sliding rear window!
Cut some wedges and popped the screen out, just like a bicycle tyre, but make sure to sepperate the inner and outter from the body incase its been siliconed in there. Luckily mine just and some horrible non hardening sealant and the rubber was still pliable enough to consider re using
The passenger side has been skilfully carved by artisan bondo sculptors, the drivers? well probably the apprentice
But, il forget I saw that for now, its all hidden and not rusting out
I just used some paracord and window cleaner to pop the new window and old seal back in. So nice to have a hole in the middle of it to grab and pull so I didn't need a helper on the outside
Just needed to give the glass and felt seals a good clean, lots of crap in the drain holes. Replaced the 2 middle rivets that act as stops for the glass. Cleaned up as best I could a bunch of old window tint. The anodising is a bit faded (bluish tint) on the outside which looks a little out of place so I might get them re coloured one day. Otherwise, so sweet!
