Have a used replacement glass for my 1985 GT rear hatch and request advise on how to go about it. I have read other threads about the special tool recommended to unclip the metal trim and the care needed not to damage the trim. I have the following questions:
1) Does all the rubber material need to be removed from the hatch before inserting the replacement glass?
2) The replacement glass has approximately a 3/8" thin rubber strip around the edge. Does this need to be removed before installing, or leave it on the glass?
3) Presuming from reading other threads that polyurethane is used as the agent to adhere the glass to the hatch. Is there a recommended brand and/or suggestion on where to obtain this product?
I want to save some money, and "looks" are less important than function on this project. Appreciate advise from anyone that has performed this task. Thanks.
