My car show entry update
Was fun at the car show, lots of nice looking cars. I figure for now to just ppost a link to my FB page of the pics I took. Beat out three nice looking Mini Coopers for 1st place for Best Import!

Thanks on the comments, when you are ready for the glass redo, contact me either here or via email (daverb46@yahoo.com) its not as hard as it seems, but found most glass shops, unless they do resto work, do not know how to do it.

None of the glass shops around here will touch it. Both my XJSes need the windshield replaced, so, I figure that I better add this to my bag of tricks too.

How is the windshield mounted in the XJS? Is it radically different than other cars? Are the shops afraid to do the work because the mounting method is unusual or are they just afraid because its a Jaguar?

They are afraid of breaking the glass. New car windshields mount differently than they did in the day of the XJS, and most glass technicians don't know how to mount old school glass. I've heard that the XJS glass mounts just like VW Beetle glass, but, never having installed glass on an old VW bug, I can't say exactly how to do it.

that is how it was for me, no shop knowing how to do one, IMO that is dumb they should learn. Anyhow, I found some information on UTube, and a section in the XJS book, but some things I found done a bit different worked out better for me.
