the opening, align it with the alignment marks (B)
you made in step 12, and set it down on the
adhesive. Lightly push on the rear window until its
edges are fully seated on the adhesive all the way
around. Do not open or close the doors until the
adhesive is dry.

knife or towel. To remove adhesive from a painted
surface or the rear window, use a soft shop towel
dampened with alcohol.

water over the rear window and check for leaks.
Mark the leaking areas, let the rear window dry,
then seal with sealant. Let the vehicle stand for at
least 4 hours after rear window installation. If the
vehicle has to be used within the first 4 hours, it
must be driven slowly.
