Open the bonnet and insert the support rod. Unscrew the bolt that secures the wipers and remove them. Detach the trim around the glass using a plastic lever.

Remove the plastic covering near the windscreen from the outside by unscrewing the fixing bolts and leveraging with the same lever used earlier. Take off the rear-view mirror.

Thread about 1.5 metres of wire into a large needle and, from inside the cabin, insert it between the windscreen and the dashboard. Now, from the outside, pull the wire with pliers and insert it into the designated handle, as shown in the video.

Pass the wire all around the glass to detach it, then remove it.
