Pull all the trim .
Use a very thin peace of wire .
Feed it between the rubber gooyyy stuff that seals the shield .very carefully push it threw to wear u can grab it on the out side .slowly pull it up and around the windshield fraim . Work it all the way around . Slowly ! Be extra carefullll .no do overs. No mulaginnn s . Now get two friends . One guy inside . To break the seal and push her out ,wile the two guys outside slowly lift her out .
Have apace ready tp put the shield.

Best to use a pare of ply ers to hold the wire as u work it around the shield. Pull the targa top , it will make it much easier . Also when u pull the wire across the bottom of the windshield , have a friend help work it across .one guy inside the car.
Slow ! Slow ..

Comes in tape rolls
Call your local Porsche dealer
The window guys have this stuff that works well , way cheaper. Use the low priced tube stuff , it works just as good.
Part number 477898o11a
924 part number
175.00 a roll
From dealer
Ow eeeee!
When I reinstalled my windshield. Yeah right , I just had the local car windshield guy do my car. I used a rubber seal on the out side of the car .
The stock trim has lill clips under the trim peace . U will see them when u pull the trim . Pulling it it very hard without damage . So be carefull.
I used a peace of rubber the same size. As the stock trim , it weathers way better . Looks low key , and better . 911 style . Ing I like it cuz it dose not scratch .
