        Mount the car in an alignment bench with measuring fixture and cross-measure as necessary.

       | 
        2.
        | 
       
        Cut the windscreen member along the edge of the inner section of the A pillar.

        3.
        | 
       
        Cut the outer panel of the windscreen member 110 mm from the top edge.
         
         
        |

        Drill out the spot welds securing the remaining sections of the windscreen member.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        5.
        | 
       
        Knock away the remaining sections and align any deformed metal.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        6.
        | 
       
        Grind the areas to be welded on the inner and outer panels of the new windscreen member and on the body.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       |

        Put the new inner and outer panels of the windscreen member in place and secure them with some welding clamps. Measure out the exact position with the measuring fixture.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        9.
        | 
       
        Cut through the outer panels of the windscreen member and the A pillar at the same time so that the joints can be butt welded.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        10.
        | 
       
        Tack on the outer panel of the windscreen member with a couple of welds on the joints.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        11.
        | 
       
        Put the windscreen and doors in place and check the fit. The door windows must be raised.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        12.
        | 
       
        Spot weld the outer and inner sections of the windscreen member.
         
         
        
          
        
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        13.
        | 
       
        Plug weld the inner section of the A pillar to the windscreen member.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        15.
        |

       | 
        16.
        | 
       
        Wash off surplus welding primer. Welding primer makes for poorer adhesion of paint, filler and sealant.
         
         
        |

        | 
       
        Apply tin filler to the joints.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        18.
        | 
       
        Apply primer to all bare metal surfaces. Use Standox 1K Füllprimer.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        19.
        | 
       
        Seal joints and metal folds with putty. Use Terostat 1K-PUR.
         
         
        | 
      
     
    
   
   
    
     
      
       | 
        20.
        | 
       
        Apply anti-corrosion agent to internal surfaces after painting. Use Terotex HV 400.
