Installation of Chrome Profiles in the Windscreen Seal of the Classic 500

Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Windshield

In this video, our friendly YouTuber shows how to insert the chrome profile - a must-have for classic 500s - into the rubber seal that finishes the front and rear windscreens. It is essential to have the profiles from the 500 "L" which have a sort of channel inside. We will insert the chrome profile into this channel. If you do not have this profile, either replace it with this one or abandon the job. You can find chrome profiles at shop.emporiobigatti.com. The special tool will also be indispensable (even the YouTuber could not name it, but it has a diamond shape and you can understand why). First, lubricate the seal slightly to facilitate the sliding of the insert. A very generic lubrication will suffice, so a bit of water and soap will do. The application is very simple, the critical moment is the curves. When you reach the end, cut off the excess. You need to tidy up the joint with a clip that covers it. Job done.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
