TO REMOVE:
Remove t-roof glass panels & place on a protective surface.
Using a body filler squeegee, separate p-seal from molding
exposing six 1/8" dia rivets. Note: The p-seal is
not reusable.
Using a putty knife or similar tool, push down on roof
weatherseal while drilling out rivets. Note: This will
keep the weatherseal from being damaged while drilling.
Carefully lift the molding up & away from the vehicle.
TO INSTALL:
Apply a bead of 1/4" liquid butyl to the area between the roof
skin & the top flange of the t-roof frame assembly. Also apply
butyl sealant to all previously drilled holes. Note: Use
caution when applying butyl across the top flange area as not to
fill the rear drain troughs.
Mark the locations of the six ribs in the frame assembly.
Center the molding to the t-roof matching the ends of the moldings
to the sweep of the character lines of the rear roof skin. By
slipping the six clips on the molding between the frame assembly
& the roof skin.
Drill six 1/8" dia. holes thru the molding & thru the frame
assembly at the six previously marked locations.
Fasten the molding to the t-roof frame assembly using 1/8"
sealed rivets.
Center the p-seal to the molding, remove paper backing &
apply p-seal to molding. Keep the bulb portion of the p-seal
flush with the top of the molding. Trim end of the p-seal and
tuck approx. 1/4" of the seal under the outer edge of the
molding.
Using a body filler squeegee, smooth p-seal against the molding.
Reseal roof drain, refer to page 10.
