Lower windscreen seal which way to fit

[flyingdutchie]

Hi guys,

Do I have to fit to big lip towards the body? I think it needs a good overlap on that side, but I am not sure.....

Wider lip: body.

Make sure you clean the rubber with a non-oily solvent. What adhesive are you using?

Sikaflex 256

I also have Sika 208 remover. Also good to clean according to Sikaflex.

Whatever you do, do not use it on a surface you want to bond. It's for wiping away excess product.

Oke..... it is for cleaning painted surfaces according to the product spec. What would you use as a non oily product to clean the areas you want to bond?

My car is missing the upper screen seal, which I didn't realise until I saw that other cars had the seal

I think it looks better without

Rearscreen is in place and I think I want to glue in the windscreen myself too..... Anyone with experience? Do you first glue on the lower windscreen rubber and then push the winscreen to the body (pushing in the uper windscreen rubber)?
