Removing Rear Screen

Gents,

I've been lucky enough to find a factory rear screen without the wiper hole. :thumbs: I'll pick this up in about a months time, ready for fitting in time for the next show.

Does anyone have any tips on removal of the rear screen?

I'm planning on using the same removal technique as the rear quarters. One person on the outside with a glass sucker and the other on the inside pushing outwards. :pc:

Apparently you release the seal from the bottom and sides first, as the top can catch on the lip of the roof panel.

Any other tips? Is there an arial connection and heated screen connector to worry about? :?

Thanks
Chris
 
There is no ariel as that's part of the front screen but the heated window element is hellish. IIRC it is connected inside the rubber seal at three different places on each side. Its why the seal often looks slightly bumpy.
 
Thanks for the heads-up :) Electric connections sound a right pain. Thought it would be a 5 minute job :puh:

I'll have a go and see how I get on...

Hi Chris,

Hope you're keeping well. I was wondering what you are up to :wink:

I see Fuch (Specialised Windscreens) has some heated front screens (with top tint) made for 964's. I don't drive mine in the winter anyway but if I did I'd be onto one of them.

Any news on NE1?

Cheers,
Paul
 
Hi Paul,

Sorry just noticed this :oops:

No news yet on NE1, I think they're just waiting on all the entries going in. I sent yours to Dave, so they definitely have it :thumbs:
