Uh Oh, metal related. Gluing glass to metal?
So I have this wild idea to make the rear window on my Scion xB
openable. It is of course made from tempered glass and so making holes in it won't work. I am pretty sure I have seen handles glued to windows on cars but I'm not sure. The rear window is now just glued to the rear hatch. I'm thinking that if it was removed a gasket could be installed, and hinges, gas springs, and a latch installed. So can this be done? Anyone here done this? I'm pretty sure that making the hinge assembly, latches, and handle won't present any real challenges. After all, I do have a complete mahine shop and I am a machinist. Eric |
