Windshield glass removal 39 coupe Cracked windshield in my 39. PO set glass in with looks like black silicone. Do I break the glass and pull the glass pieces out? Or is there trick? I have the windshield out of the car.
Glass is safety type Thanks Pete |
Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe Might try cutting the silicon with a razor blade to remove glass or take it to a glass shop.

Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe You need to separate the two windshield halfs which is necessary . Then see if you can work the glass out.

Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe If indeed the glass was set with silicone or urethane instead of setting tape; you may very well have to break the glass out and remove in pieces to avoid damaging the windshield frame.

Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe Go over to Irontrap Garage on youtube. They have just put up installing glass in a 39 windshield.

Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe I had a 36 and some one had put silicon gasket maker in the frame, I used a squirt bottle of gas to loosen it up to pull frame pieces off

Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe I often use a heat gun to remove caulking and silicone. It may crack the glass unless you shield it with a piece of aluminum flashing or something like that

Re: Windshield glass removal 39 coupe The small screws can be a nuisance sometimes if they break off while undoing them.
