How to Remove a Windshield From a 1996 Oldsmobile Delta 88

The Oldsmobile Delta 88, or "88" for short, was a full-size vehicle manufactured at the end of the 1940s until 1999. You can remove the windshield from your 1996 Oldsmobile Delta 88 to save you the expense of paying an automotive glass shop to do it for you. It is not a difficult task to accomplish if you have someone to help you remove it. And it should take you only about 30 minutes. You will need a few tools and supplies, which you can purchase at a hardware or auto parts store.

Instructions

1

Lift up the windshield wipers to the cleaning position. Loosen and remove the nuts that hold the wipers in place with an adjustable wrench. Pry up the windshield wipers with a flathead screwdriver.

2

Put on gloves and pry up the rubber seal around the windshield with a pry tool. Remove the seal from the windshield with your hands after you have loosened it.

3

Poke the wire tool through the seal between the windshield and the frame. Run the wire around the entire perimeter of the windshield. This will break the urethane seal.

4

Position your helper at the outside front of the Oldsmobile. Have your helper put on thick work gloves. Sit inside the Delta in the drivers or passengers seat and push the windshield out of the frame with your hands while your helper catches it from outside the car.

5

Scrape off any old glue from the windshield frame with a utility knife.
