Does anyone know how to remove the rear window of a 206. The tint around the edge is faded. This happened on my last 206. I want to remove the window and get it sorted. I am referring to the standard tint around the edge, which is on all 206's it's not the result of a bad DIY tint job.

All help given would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

Alex

You'll need to do it the same way as a bonded windscreen I would have thought. Easiest way is to let the professional windscreen fitter do it.

If it's looking how I think it is, the only solution is a new rear screen as it's the factory applied paint around the edge of the glass. Mines gone a green/brown colour in places but I'm not going to the expense of getting a new rear screen fitted just so it looks black again.

i was thinking of asking this question yesterday, as mine looks like it has delaminated (a milky white colour), is it only cars after a certain yr that have this issue, as i work with a guy who drives a 2000 W-Reg quicksilver, and his does not seem to be showing signs of this, come to think of it neiter did my w-reg D-Turbo.

so have pug gone and started using cheaper nastier parts.
