I want to do this so bad, i'm just afraid of destroying seals and weatherstripping that we can't buy anymore.

 

[wkmitsu]

Holy shit thats awesome! I like it when people do really crazy projects like this. Good luck and nice STI in the background.

so far the only seals i am worried about that i cant find a cost effective replacement for are the ones around the rear quarter windows that come with the glass. the windshield and the rear hatch glass should be replaceable with a generic type seal, and everything else just un bolts.

hey bro just to let you know im an auto glass tech and the seals around the rear quarter glasses are encapsulated on too the glass which means they dont sell them seperate.. they come glued on to the glass.. so the way yout take out the glass is that u have to cut them out from the inside.. i did this to my eclipse 3 days ago i should of took some pics.. i can get you some pics of how the glass looks like when its taken out of the body so u can see what i mean..

 

[mike96]

yea i kind of figured that it was at the very least formed around the glass one way or another, wasn't sure if it was glued or not. if i can get some pics of the underside of the glass that would be great. i have already looked into trying to get a piece of wire through the driver side but the car had been sitting inside the garage so the sealant holding the glass in wasn't very forgiving and wouldn't cut easily. i will have to let it sit outside a while before i try it again, thats what i did for the windshield. cut much easier. there are two posts on the front edge of the glass that need to be worked around, are there any more around the top and bottom?

 

[Alex Bland]

i would be to scared to do this i dont think i would remember how it all went back together

 

[Ravewolf]

Who cares Alex, when you get this far you start to learn the wonders of creativity and uniqueness, i.e., doing things YOUR way .
Must be nice to have a garage though.....

Wow you took that weight reduction pretty far huh! I guess the only thing your lacking is to cut a hole in the floor and flintstone it around!! haha

 

[gstspyder53172]

i'll get you some pics mike96 when i get home and ill take pics of how the glass looks outside of the body and how the body looks without the glass
