Default glass roof cracked

due to some one righting my last crx off i have bought a new one its a 90 1.6 dohc non vtec si glass roof. now i bought it with the winscreen cracked and the glass roof cracked i obviously didnt think that it would be that hard to replace the glass roof thought it would be the same as the windscreen so after two solid days of searching i haven really found any thing so i was wondering if anyone could please help or point me in the right direction i have another crx with the glass in it ready to swap just need to know how to take it out and put it back in thanks for anyones time.

oh and i have crx manual but theres nothing in that either is there another manual maybe for si or sir glass roof models

Yes, it was an american guy going for the jdm look. He had someone do it with some sort of right angled knife to cut away the seal. Another user called Sharpie did it also in another build thread as far as i know. ITs definetly do-able but better to do it right 1st time then regret it when the metal under the seals starts rusting

This http://board.hondacrx.co.uk/phpBB2/v...c.php?t=102282 pretty much tells you what you need to know.

And he also refers to thishttp://www.jdmuniverse.com/forums/ho...p-install.html glasstop installation guide, may not cover what you need to know but you get the idea

You should get on to your local windscreen center and see will they fit it for you with the correct adhesives etc.
