  Q: How to install windshield glass on Scion xB?

  A: Start the windshield glass installation process by cleaning the windshield glass with a scraper to eliminate damaged stoppers and dam along with adhesive while being cautious to protect the glass. Use a non-residue solvent to clean the outer edge then abstain from coming into contact with the processed area. Follow this step by thoroughly cleaning the vehicle body through knife operation which eliminates adhesive roughness while avoiding body damage followed by wiping it with either a shop rag or cloth. Put in two new No.2 stoppers to the windshield glass after you apply Primer G to the installation area then wait for a minimum of 3 minutes for drying time. Install 2 new No. 1 stoppers on the vehicle body parallel to installation of 2 new No. 2 stoppers on the windshield glass. Primer G should be applied to the windshield outside moulding application area and adhesive dam before they get installed. Use suction cups to position the windshield glass while maintaining an even contact surface and matching the marks with the necessary application of Primer M to the vehicle body installation surface and Primer G to adhesive areas. Purchaser should apply Toyota Genuine Windshield Glass Adhesive or its equivalent to the glass surface within the designated usage time window prior to windshield installation which requires inspection for correct stopper operation for vehicle clearance. Secure protective tape over the glass surface to hold it into position until the adhesive becomes hard. During the minimum waiting period avoid operating the vehicle. Last step involves external water testing for leaks followed by adhesive addition for any deformity and protective tape removal. Proceed to install the inner rear view mirror assembly, roof headlining, front pillar garnishes, room light assembly, personal light assembly, visor holder, visor assemblies, assist grip, front door opening trim Weather Strips, cowl side trim boards, front door scuff plates, cowl top ventilator louvers, hood to cowl top seal, front wiper arm and blade assemblies, windshield wiper arm cover, reconnect the negative battery terminal with a torque of 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 48 in-lbf), and inspect the SRS warning light.
