I am removing the original glass from my 24 coupe. I have taken the measurements from the old glass. The new laminated glass will be 1/4 thick and should fit in the channel. Likely not enough space to put the fabric in the channel like original. I have seen people put a bead of clear silicone and install glass. I have not had the glass cut yet.
Any ideas or guidance with experience would be helpful.
Anyone have the glass measurements for a 24 coupe to compare with what I removed?

Thanks
Mike

Mike, I would leave it to the glass shop to use whatever mounting materials they use in their everyday work. Most times this will be a black mastic type product. Sikaflex is one brand of glass mounting material.
With windscreens a big advantage is these materials preclude water, so the rust problem is eliminated.

Hope this helps.

This has '24 closed body glass dimensions.

Mike, do what Allen just said. Let those who deal with it daily handle it. It's worth the money. You break your glass once, maybe twice, trying to install it, now you've spent more than what it would be to let them do it. I've done two sets of windshields through the glass company and no regrets.
