WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mazda Tribute. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
- After installing the urethane installed glass, the vehicle should not be driven until the urethane adhesive has cured. The curing time at temperatures above 13°C (55°F) and relative humidity above 50% is 12-24 hours. (Refer to the Essex drive away chart for the cure times as temperatures and humidity vary). Inadequate curing of the urethane adhesive will adversely affect the strength of the urethane bond.
- Dry fit the quarter window glass, making alignment marks with tape or non-staining grease pencil.
