Base Removal

  1. Remove the rearview mirror.
  2. Wind each end of a wire around a bar.
    WARNING:
    • Using the piano wire with bare hands can cause injury. Always wear gloves when using the piano wire.
    NOTE:
    • Use a long sawing action to spread the work over the whole length of the piano wire to prevent it from breaking. Do not pull too hard to prevent damage to windshield.
  3. Saw through the sealant to remove the base.
