7.Make knife cut in sealant at bottom of 'E' post.
8.Insert cutting wire through previously made
knife cut and fit handles as shown, with
approximately 200 mm of wire between
handles.
9.With assistance, wedge tube of handle A
between glass and body, ahead of cutting
position, and carefully cut sealer using a
continuous pull on handle B from the outside.
Ensure that glass is retained as last sealant is
cut.
If multi-strand cutting wire is used, a sawing
action can be used to cut through heavy
sealant deposits around corners.
Use of a sawing action may overheat and
break single strand wire.
10.Attach suction cup and remove glass body.
Lay glass on felt covered supports. Do not
stand on edge. Any chipping of glass edge
may develop into cracks. Refit
1.Carefully remove excess sealer from body
leaving a smooth surface.
2.Use a vacuum cleaner to clear away any waste.
3.Original glass: Carefully cut back old sealant to
obtain a smooth surface without damaging
obscuration band on glass.
4.With assistance, locate glass to body.
5.Apply masking tape reference marks to aid
fitment.
6.Remove glass and place aside.
7.Clean frame and edge of glass with solvent.
Do not touch cleaned or primed surfaces
with fingers.
8.Repair any damaged paintwork as necessary.
9.Apply bonding agent to glass and allow to cure.
10.Apply activator over old sealer on frame.
11.Allow activator to cure.
12.Apply primer to frame.
13.Fit pre-cut nozzle to sealer cartridge, remove lid
and shake out crystals, and install in applicator
gun.
Nozzle will need modification to achieve
required bead section.

14.Apply a continuous bead of sealer around edge
of frame as shown. Make bead slightly thicker
at each corner.
15.Check for breaks and air bubbles in sealer.
16.Position glass to body and align to reference
tape.
17.Lightly press glass to fully seat sealer.
18.Secure glass with tape until sealer has cured.
19.Remove protective covers and tape.
20.Test seal for leaks, apply additional sealer if
necessary. If water is used, allow sealer to dry
before testing. Spray water around glass and
check for leaks. Dry affected area and apply
additional sealer if necessary.
21.Position headlining and locate hardback seal.
22.Secure headlining with Torx screws.
23.Position catches, fit Torx screws and tighten to
10 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft).
24.Fit 'E post finishers, engage in clips and secure
with screws.
25.Fit Hard-back.

Dimensional Information
Measurement Types
The following dimensional information is shown so as to assist the technician in the diagnosis and repair of body
panels. The information is shown in two different ways. There are X,Y,Z dimensions and actual point to point
dimensions.
The X,Y,Z dimensions are the measuring planes used within Land Rover for the measurement of body panels. The
whole bodyshell is within a parallel grid system, see illustrations below.
The X plane is an imaginary vertical plane starting at the front of the vehicle. It is at right angles to the centre line of
the vehicle and measures distances along the length of the vehicle.
The Y plane is an imaginary plane through the centre of the vehicle. All Y dimensions start from this plane. As a rule,
body dimensions are symmetrical about the centre line.
The Z plane is set at a fixed distance parallel to the underside of the vehicle. All Z dimensions start from this plane.
The point to point measurements are actual distances between two points. These points can be holes or intersection
points. Where holes are taken, the point of measurement is always from the hole centre.
Measurements shown are in millimetres and inches. The measurements shown in brackets are in inches.
The tolerance for the basic geometry of the vehicle is ± 1.0 mm (0.040). This includes tooling holes, all fixing holes
and apertures.
The tolerance for matching panel form and break lines is ± 0.5 mm (0.020).
