    S14 Windscreen removal help?

    Anyone know how to remove s14 windscreen? Need to repaint the car and outer seal is gone completely. Question is shall I just mask it up and get a new universal outer trim or shall I remove? If so I can't figure out how.

    IIRC cutting the screen out ****s the original rubber up as it wraps round the screen edge. When it comes to getting mine removed I'm gonna get an original one from amayama to replace it, but I've heard of people getting a quality universal one fitted and it being fine. I good fitter will know what works

    As the screen is nicely bonded still could I just clean up around and fit a universal pier seal?

    If you're getting a full respray, I'd remove the glass. It'll give you a better job and there's a chance that rust is lurking behind it, it's your choice though. Just cutting the old rubber out and bonding a new rubber in would be a bit of a bodge to me, especially if it comes lose on the road and start beating your fresh paintwork

    Yeh. I know what u mean. I rang a few companies they won't come out just to remove and fit another time. They will only do it on same day. And it's 225 roughly. That's why I thought I'd remove my self and ring to have it re fitted. But don't know how hard it is to remove

    Find an independent screen fitter and get them to Do it. No one charges 225 to remove a screen.
