windscreen removal P2

[MikeB]

Hi All
I am having trouble removing the windscreen from my P2, I have drilled out the four screws on the top of the windscreen frame where it pivots thinking this would allow it to come out, however it will not budge, I have drilled through both the bracket attached to the windscreen and through the bracket that comes out of the roof for the windscreen to pivot on

Is there something more to getting the windscreen out of the car than this ? it seems the bracket on the windscreen does not want to part from the bracket that comes from under the headlining

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Mike

Hi All

Windscreen problem sorted, looking at the bracket at the top of the windscreen with the screen in place with a magnifying glass showed it not to be a flat bracket but a bracket with a 90degree angle so no chance of it coming out from the outside of the car, carefully peeled away the head lining at the top of the windscreen inside the car and all was revealed ( Just had this re trimmed ! Hey Ho) managed to get the screen out and part the two sections, so now off to get them chromed

One question though, I have a rubber seal around the windscreen opening on the car, I was told there was only one rubber seal and that is on the windscreen frame, are there two rubbers or just the one ?

Thanks

Mike
