Toyota Prius 2010-2011
Thanks for viewing this
slide show for a replacement of a Toyota Prius with
a Third Visor Frit around the rearview mirror. The part
number of the windshield used on this installation was
FW03138GTN made by Pilkington in Mexico. We also used
new under sided molding by OE Tech made in the USA.
Read more below show.
To start this installation
we tape all the outer edges of the pinchweld wall to
prevent scratching the vehicle during the auto glass
removal. Next the wiper location is also marked with
blue tape prior to removal. The cowl and wipers are
removed from the Prius and set aside during removal
of the windshield. A Cold Knife Paint Protector Blade
was used during removal to protect the outer vehicle
walls from being scratched. The pinchweld is cleaned
with Reverse Osmosis Water and paper towels to remove
dirt and grime. Performing the "Full Cut Method" the
old seal was trimmed with a Stubby Knife down to 1-2
mm thin. The walls are cleaned again with Reverse Osmosis
Water and allowed to dry. Dow BetaSeal Pinchweld Primer
was applied to the pinchweld to prevent future rust
from forming. We cleaned the windshield, installed new
molding, applied glass primer, and transfer all stickers
to the new auto glass.
The adhesive used for this
installation was made by Dow Chemical and the brand
BetaSeal 1 with a 1 hour safe drive away time. The new
windshield was installed by two people with suction
cups for better placement. If you have any questions
