It's been a while since i stripped my car, it also came partly stripped. I'm painting the car now and have found 3 holes in a triangular pattern on each side underneath the roll bar. Can someone advise me what they're for?
Final question. The rear glass was stuck in with a bucket load of clear silicone sealer. What is the correct or acceptable alternative way of fitting this glass? |

Not exactly sure of what you're talking about, but if you're talking about underneath the top part, it could be for the rear latches for the targa top?
The rear glass goes in wig butyl tape I think. The windshield does for sure. |

The tri hole pattern is under the roll bar at the rear of the glass as opposed to being inside where the latches fit.

The 3 holes on each side toward the trailing edge of the roll-bar top are actually with threaded nuts welded to the roll bar ro attach ski & bike racks & accsy racks. There will also be 2 slots L & R at the top of the windshield frame behind where the seal fits, which is to install an "L" bracket for the forward rack part(s) & the targa top secures them in place (in addition to set-screws on the bracket[s]).
You can see various types of racks on the Accessories page of Jeff Bowlsby's website: http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/ Rob's comment on the butyl tape is correct, but change "wig" to "with"! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Good Luck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
