rear windscreen.

finally got door and tailgate in the colour that they should be,what i would like to know is=how do you get the glass out of my now redundant tailgate,is it seal just by the 2 rubbers inner/outer with out it breaking,expensive to replace,spare would be ideal,any ideas plse.

u need to use a stanley knife to cut away the rubber seals, if u want to remove it without breaking it u will need to use some kind of alcoholic saleen solution to break down the bond from the black glue stuff that glues the windscreen in place. normally when u get the window replaced the guys doin it will stanley the rubbers then crowbar or sumin similar the window out of the frame, generally cos the window in question is already broken/cracked. i recently had to have my front windwow replaced and that cost me £83 all in with them coming out to me, but im in hull and it cheap up here, and the guy that done it is out of business now! Also had the drivers side rear window replaced cos my car got broke into and that cost £70 all in with A1motor windscreens (i think they were who i used). the rear one will probs cost bit more though cos of the heating elements in it. hope that helps a bit

then i would assume that the rear screen is bonded in,i have taken the inner rubber off and applied some pressure on the screen,but nothing doing,when my rear screen popped in london last month i was quoted £396 for a replacement,hence the reason for a spare screen.
