Discovery1 Alpine Window - How to Remove and Refit Window and Seal

- How to remove and refit the Landrover Discovery1 Alpine window (at the rear top/sides) and the rubber seal.
Mostly you need to do this in order to treat corrosion that occurs on the lower edge around this window due to no sealant being used when it was fitted.
It is only mentioned briefly in the video, but on refitting put some black polymer type sealant into the rubber seal where it meets the metal and that lower edge corrosion should be a thing of the past.
Also look out for my other videos in a few days about doing the paint touch up, priming and spraying etc in order to treat that corrosion and smarten up your Discovery 1. Plus another about replacing the rear side window rubber seals (they split with age). Oh and one more coming about renovating those rubber door window seals where the internal Ali insert corrodes at the back and bubbles up the rubber.

Need to do my my alpine too due to rust . Great help .Thanks
Thanks
Very informative as I need to repair mine very soon. What was the sealant that you used?
Black polymer sealant. Check on eBay, lots of different makes, but the key word is polymer.
really good vid! loving the POV angle as it helps me visualise better when im doing the same on mine.
quick question, where'd you find that spoiler looking thing? it really sets it off at the back!
keep the vids comimng!
Thanks for your comments. The spoiler came with the car when I bought it, so can't help on that. Regards. Jon
wow! could be re-named 'Easiest way to break into a discovery' :-)
Smashing a window is the usual quick route. Either way the ultrasonic volume sensing alarm will be set off.
@@comeinhandynow not if its a 95
Will a disco1 work in a disco2?
I don’t think so.
See my clue was way way stronger and it did not want to come off and I broke mine accidentally and then on the parts truck same thing.
You lost me there, say what?
Metal screwdriver!
