pulling a windshield
Posted: Tue Oct 11, 2016 11:12 pm
finally got a five day tag for inspection on the 86 golf.
got a fighting chance at pushing it through, but I'm a little stuck on the windshield, which is cracked . getting a new one and paying to have it swapped would about equal the market value of the car . no luck at nearest junkyards. Found a part out nearby on an 88.
anyone have experience pulling one? any advice? I'm planning on paying for a professional install, I just want to pull the replacement successfully. from what I've seen on line, the fit looks pretty tight on the golf. Thinking about working mostly from the inside and going at the urethane with a razer and little handsaw (about a sawsall blade size).
Pretty sure I'm going ahead with this, just hoping to pick up a little wisdom here
