Removal and Installation
REMOVAL
- Partially remove the headlining (front edge). Refer to INT-40, "Removal
and Installation".
- Remove inside mirror. Refer to MIR-16, "Removal and Installation".
- Remove the cowl top cover. Refer to EXT-26, "Removal and Installation".
- Remove windshield glass using piano wire or power cutting tool (A) and
an inflatable pump bag (B).

- Apply protective tape around the windshield glass to protect the painted
surface from damage.
- If the windshield glass is to be reused, mark the body and the glass
with matching marks.
- Minimum adhesive coating amount 8 +3,-0 g/100 mm (0.28 +0.11,-0 oz/3.9
in) all around.
WARNING:
When cutting the glass from the vehicle, always wear safety glasses
and heavy gloves to help prevent
glass splinters from entering your eyes or cutting your hands.
CAUTION:
- Be careful not to scratch the glass when removing.
- Do not set or stand the glass on its edge. Small chips may develop
into cracks.
- Apply protective tape around the windshield glass to protect the
painted surface from damage.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
- If repainting near the windshield flange area, protect the flange
adhesion area by masking the flange.
- Use a genuine NISSAN Urethane Adhesive Kit (if available) or equivalent
and follow the instructions furnished
with it.
- Adhesive shall be continuously applied to assure watertightness. Glass
installation shall be finished within
five minutes after applying the adhesive.
- The start and finish of the urethane adhesive application should be
located at the bottom to assure watertightness.
- While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will
prevent the glass from being forced out
by passenger compartment air pressure when a door is closed.
- The molding must be installed securely to the windshield glass to avoid
looseness and will leave no gap.
- Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the
urethane adhesive has completely
cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and
humidity.
WARNING:
CAUTION:
- Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term. Shelf life
of this product is limited to six
months after the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or
manufacture date printed
on the box or product.
- Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they
should be stored in a refrigerator.
- Do not leave primers or adhesive cartridge unattended with their
caps open or off.
- The vehicle should not be driven for at least 24 hours or until
the urethane adhesive has completely
cured. Curing time varies depending on temperature and humidity. The curing
time will increase
under lower temperature and lower humidity.

REPAIRING WATER LEAKS FOR WINDSHIELD
- Leaks can be repaired without removing and reinstalling glass.
- If water is leaking between the urethane adhesive material and body or
glass, determine the extent of leakage.
- This can be done by applying water to the windshield area while pushing
glass outward.
- To stop the leak, apply primer (if necessary) and then urethane adhesive
to the leak point.
