DIY Windscreen Replacement

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Windshield

Windscreen replacement is a delicate and potentially dangerous task. To prevent accidental breakage of the glass during removal, protect the interior of the vehicle with covers to avoid glass shards spreading into the ventilation system. Also, use appropriate hand and eye protection. Start by lowering the front windows, then use a sturdy plastic tool to remove the seal and trims around the glass. Protect the engine air intakes and proceed to lift the windscreen for removal. It is advisable to perform this operation using suction cups. Clean the edge thoroughly with a tool to remove any residue from the old seal. Apply the appropriate sealant around the edge of the new glass you will position on the vehicle using the suction cups. Place the spacers along the edge of the glass to position it correctly. Complete the sealing.
