How to Replace the Windscreen on the Alfa Romeo 147

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Windshield

To change the windscreen on the Alfa Romeo 147, you need to go to an authorised centre, which will carry out this procedure. First, locate the appropriate glass for the car, place it on a suitable support, and prepare it by cleaning it with a specific detergent. Surround the top part with the external aesthetic trim, and attach the rear-view mirror and suction cups to move the windscreen. Move to the car, where you will remove the wiper arms and the cover beneath the windscreen. Cut the external trim with a utility knife, and use a special wire to detach the glass by passing it around the entire perimeter. Use a special tool to remove the previous adhesive and clean the surface where the glass will go. Once the frame is prepared, apply an activator (to ensure the adhesive works properly). Moisten a paper towel with the activator and spread it around the edge of the glass and on the car. Now, you can apply the adhesive to the glass, take the glass, and position it on the car, securing it with adhesive tape. Finally, reattach the wiper arms and the cover beneath the windscreen. The car can be used one hour after positioning the glass.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
