I used to h@te doing saloon back glasses but as I have become more experienced - I know love the challange of getting a nice clean install with only an odd spec of contamination.

I ordered some backing paper that is used for mounting stickers and had my supplier cut it down to a manageble size and along with some duct tape, I use this to totally seal off the rear deck on vehicles that are heard to pull the rear deck on - today it was an Audi A4.

I use the S fold method and get really clean installs.

I used to use film scraps for this but the paper is much better for this job.

I'm sure this has been posted before but will hopefully assist some of our newer members.

A sedan is a four door and a coupe is a two door.The BG means back glass and a windscreen is a windshield in proper English..
