Glass Removal (Tint fitting)

(1/4) > >>

RedDisco:
What's the best way to remove the side glass in the rear of a 300tdi (the side of the load area, not the passenger compartment) I'm wanting to fit tint film and thought it may be better to remove glass first.

Thanks.

robbie:
not sure on how to remove it but if it was me, I would probably want to keep it in there so I wouldnt risk breaking it in the removal process...

I would also not want it start leaking afterwards either ;)

no doubt someone will say for sure which is the best way to do the tinting

blackbob:
if its got a rubber surround run a blunt tool pref plastic arround the inside of the widow on the trim side then push the glass with firm pressure and it should push the glass out
then fit the tint then put the rubber on the glass and insert a nylon cord where the metel part of the body would be leaving an overlap with the string
then hold the glass in plach and pull the string which will pull the rubber back into place and tap the glass home with the palm of your hand to get a good seat

i fitted the tints on mine and denviks disco,

you do not need to remove the glass, just clean it on both sides, then get a bowl of suds and smear over the inside of the glass, offer the tint film up, and squige the air out, then cut off te excess with a finr blade, the film usually come with knives and instructions

hope this helps

RedDisco:
Thanks Jon, I just thought removing the glass may make a better job, but if you think I can get away without I'll give it a go :D

Just out of interest how long did it take you?
