Dixon 1 Posted October 9, 2006 What have people used to fit/stick their rear polycarb window in with? I've heard using windscreen glue works, but what exactly am I looking for and where would I get it from? I went in to halfords and all I could find was silicone, I assume this wouldn't be strong enough and not quite what people mean by windscreen glue. Has anyone rivited it in place, will the polycarbonate stand up to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smckeown 1 Posted October 9, 2006 base model rubbers are the best. other than that rivet/bolt if screen oversized Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batfink 201 Posted October 9, 2006 riveting works very well. I've done a few polycarb windows this way. I then do a very thin seal of silicone and its waterproof too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smckeown 1 Posted October 9, 2006 ah do you mean rear or rear 1/4 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dixon 1 Posted October 9, 2006 Sorry I mean the rear, as in the boot lid. I've done all the others and used the base model rubbers for the rear 1/4's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calvinhorse 870 Posted October 9, 2006 paint a 1 1/2" black strip round the edge then mastic it in then screws the black lip makes it look tidyer!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dixon 1 Posted October 13, 2006 So is the general feel to rivit and silicone it in? I'm guessing that drilling / riviting doesn't split the polycarbonite? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smckeown 1 Posted October 13, 2006 drilling is fine. I'd bolt them in to be honest. Like i did here with small headed bolts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
