 Posted: Sun Jul 03, 2011 2:30 am Post subject: Glass reseal |
 |
|
So i have been working on the car and bringing it back to life and is coming well...
The rear glass is coming unsealed at the top. I have looked around on here and found threads of others that have tried to reseal with some horrible results... so i feel i will leave it to the pros to do.
I found a shop here that will remove and replace the glass for 100, but if it breaks they can get new glass and have it in for $285
Does this seem really low to anyone?
IF SO... who else needs this done.. because i have a shop you should call to get it done at!! LOL

You probably noticed this at the car wash. Most 944 hatches I have owned will leak at the top when sprayed from the rear with a high pressure wand, but when rained down on they do not leak. If the glass is not DETACHING from the frame I would attempt to seal it myself before handing a wad of cash to someone else.

I have this exact same issue and wasn't sure what exactly I should do to try to fix. Any suggestions?

you should go to a autoglass service they can fix your problem (reseal ) ..or you could try to fix it...but from my opinion it's not worth it.. |
