3. INSTALL SLIDING ROOF GLASS SUB-ASSEMBLY

   
   

   1. Using a T25 "TORX" socket wrench, temporarily install the sliding roof glass sub-assembly with the 4 screws.

   2. Perform a level check.

      

      
      

      1. Check the difference in level for "a" between the roof panel and the upper surface of the weatherstrip when the sliding roof glass is fully closed.

         Standard
         Area Measurement A - A 0 + 1.5 mm (0 + 0.0591 in.) 0 - 1.5 mm (0 - 0.0591 in.) B - B 0 + 1.5 mm (0 + 0.0591 in.) 0 - 1.5 mm (0 - 0.0591 in.) C - C 0 + 1.5 mm (0 + 0.0591 in.) 0 - 1.5 mm (0 - 0.0591 in.) D - D 0 + 1.5 mm (0 + 0.0591 in.) 0 - 1.5 mm (0 - 0.0591 in.)

         Tech Tips

         "+" represents the condition that the glass is above the panel level. "-" represents the condition that the glass is below the panel level.
