Installation Procedure

Clean urethane adhesive from around backlite opening fence.
If necessary, apply black-out primer to outer edge of replacement backlite frame (1).
If black-out primer was pre-applied on backlite, clean bonding surface with Isopropyl alcohol and clean lint free cloth. Allow 5 minutes for drying time.
Apply black-out primer to backlite opening fence.
Apply a 13 mm (0.5 in.) (2) X 9.5 mm (0.375 in) (1) bead of urethane around the perimeter of the window frame bonding surface.
CAUTION: Bead location, close to the metal edge, is critical to avoid urethane "squeeze out."
