Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to remove the rear hatch weather strip on this 1986 Camaro Iroc Z, same as any '82-'92 Camaro or Firebird Trans Am, etc. No tools are necessary. You will need some adhesive to put your new seal back on. We do show you how to remove the hatch so you can clean up in the upper area between the hatch and the roof of the vehicle which is sometimes hard to clean. For that you will need a 13 millimeter socket and ratchet, an 8 millimeter socket and ratchet, as well as someone to assist you in lifting off the glass.
This could be a really short video, and to some people it's going to be simple, but to some that don't know all this seal just does, there's usually a seam in it right here. Pull that seam apart. It looks like they did use some adhesive. Just pull the seal right up and off.
To remove this glass, there are four 13 millimeter bolts. I'm going to undo them up in here, in the top of the body of the car. Now, you may ask why I'm taking the hatch off. To be honest with you it's: 1, because we're going to paint this car, and 2, really in order to reinstall this seal correctly you should take the hatch off and really clean up, up above on the roof. Lots of times a whole bunch of debris and dirt and stuff gets in there. It just makes it easier to glue it down and get it on there right. Now, you might think with the third brake light on there, there's some wiring, but there's not. That's what this switch is right here. The third brake light is actually wired through the window and this switch just hits contact down on the vehicle. I've got those four bolts undone. Now I'm going to undo these. These struts won't come off until you take them off. What I mean by that is you can unbolt them and they're not just going to flop off. They'll stay there until you want them to come off. Disconnect the defrost lead. Disconnect the stop light lead. Now, probably, having a helper would be the best thing here. I'm going to remove this. Put the hatch down. Now, with an assistant, pull the glass up and off.
Now with the hatch off you can really clean this properly. You can see how much gunk builds up and stuff in there. Then put your weather strip back on. You'll want to do your best to get all this . it looks like it comes off pretty easy . all this residual glue off.
Then, you just put a bead of glue right up on top all the way around and then press your weather strip down on top of it.
