Rear Wagon Window/Glass


Recommended Posts

Haynes manual gives this one 5 wrenches:

"Windscreen and other fixed glass-removal and refitting: Special equipment and techniques are needed for successful removal and refitting of the windscreen, rear window and side windows. Have the work carried out by Volvo dealer or a windscreen specialist."

Wimps.

My hunch is that you've got to do something with that bar which goes across the top of the window. Have you pulled the weatherstripping yet?

I'd also bet there is some sort of adhesive involved and you'll need to attack it with a heat gun to loosen it up (while holding on to it with those big suction cups).

I hope this is for the deer hit special.

Yes, it's coming off the deermobile. All that's left is a shell. It's completely stripped.

The trim that goes around it is strictly for looks. It does nothing to hold the window on and there are no fasteners holding it to the body that I can see inside.

I'm thinking it's similar to the windshield, which means I'm not going to bother with it. Probably not worth my time.
