Bickerton Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Need a proper tool really, glass company had to rag it to death when they removed mine, you could try fannying about with a long cutter as its merely sealent holding it in.

beska133 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 i had my Polo's windscreen changed yesterday, you need a stupidly long Stanley knife and boiling water, cut out most of the surrounding sealant then pour boiling water down the sides to make the sealant soft then from the inside, start gently hitting the screen until it moves, this is how the AA geez did it haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 If you're not just going to pay someone minimal amounts to do this, you may as well just hit it with a hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 http://www.ebay.co.u...=item415cdfdfd0Hope they don't care about the paint. Also worth noting that pro's know how to fit a screen and have the best sealers etc, Lupo screens are well known for leaking and if you don't get it right the screen can pop out in a crash and the roof will just fold if you roll it. ...and no a mate didn't tell me this.
