Convertible Rear Window Delamination

[flat6]

Hello,

I did my searches and found a bunch of stuff on this topic, I just wanted to know if anybody has the HOW-TO or factory manual telling me how to remove and re-install the rear window on a 996 cab.

I have the new part from Porsche, and just need to install it. Thanks

Forum member "juniinc" replaced his vinyl window on his 986 without removing the canvas top and now sells "kits" to replace the windows in Boxsters and 991's. The kit apparently contains instructions. Maybe you can get a hold of one of those instruction sheets to put in your factory vinyl replacement window. Here is his link: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...c=16778&hl=

There has also been a lot of discussion on the ease (10-15mins and about 6 bolts) of removing the entire top, with the mechanism, to do the vinyl window install. I recall that the discussions revolved around a Boxster top, not 911, so it may be a different story there.

I think they (the kits) are also available on eBay from juniinc and from another seller.
