IMPORTANT REMINDER: Urethane set glass may typically be considered a structural component. Refer to OEM replacement procedures for installation methods and materials necessary to restore structural integrity.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: No windshield or flush mounted reveal mouldings can be removed without the possibility of breakage or damage that will require replacement. Unintentional damage to glass that is considered a structural member by the vehicle manufacturer may occur when attempting alignment pulls to correct unibody collision damage. Agree beforehand who will incur the charge for damage occurring during normal R&R and R&I operations.
