Mazda RX-7 Windshield
The Mazda RX-7 Windshield is the car's primary protection against flying objects and other extreme weather conditions and also maintains clear forward vision at speed. It is made of laminated safety glass that traps a strong layer of plastic between two curved sheets and therefore does not shatter easily when hit by a stone or any other object but helps protect occupants in case stones or other items transported by the front part of the vehicle hit it. This stratagem also reinforces the rounded nose of the sports coupe. The airflow is smooth on the roof, a minor yet noticeable contribution to the rotary model preoccupation with minimized drag and improved fuel efficiency. Even this hard panel would eventually develop scratches or staining that distort the driver's view and hence Mazda owners are advised to change this panel after its clarity has been affected. The initial years of production featured a smooth, transparent sheet of laminated glass, but subsequent versions of the Mazda RX-7 have slightly tinted glass that reduces glare and gives the car a disguised appearance, and both models have the same impact-absorbing structure. Since this element is fixed into the body, which means that a well-fitting Windshield also adds to chassis rigidity, it is important to every Mazda fan to ensure that this glass is in the optimal possible condition and that a high-quality Windshield is chosen whenever replenishment is needed.

Mazda RX-7 Windshield Parts and Q&A
- Q: What special tools and techniques are required for the safe removal and installation of bonded windshields and side windows on Mazda RX-7?A:The windshield and side window are glued and require special tools and sealant to remove and install, it can be a messy operation so one should be careful when doing it or the glass and surrounding paint will be damaged quickly. A factory dealer or a competent auto glass shop may do the work, which is possibly a benefit. Start by taking off the wiper arms, interior mirror and all the trims and garnishings around the windshield. Make sure that the paint surrounding the windshield was more recently polished or waxed with a high-quality polish or wax. Use adhesive tape on the painted areas to cover up the areas with a tape that is double the thickness further to the windshield molding. Take a sheet of plastic or any related material that can be used as a shield to pull the molding off the glass using a curved object. Use a small hole in the sealant and run a piece of piano wire through it and loop the ends of the wire round handles to saw through the sealant around the glass in a long sawing motion. When lifting out the glass, do so with caution so that you do not tear any paint.
- Q: What are the steps involved in applying a sealant layer and installing a windshield on Mazda RX-7?A:The sealant layer should be used all the way around the frame and should be between 0.08 in (2 mm) thick, whereby the old sealant is cut away to this thickness with a sharp knife or where new sealant has been applied with the use of primer on the area. The bonding agent should be applied to a new dam which is bonded to the glass and is set 0.3 in (7 mm) away on the edge. A primer is then applied in a thin layer on the bonding area and allowed to dry off within 30 minutes without touching the surface and washing off all the primer that touches the hands. The position of the spacers to the body should be bonded in the upper and bottom parts, and defective clips used to mold the spacers must be substituted. A gun in the form of a cartridge with the nozzle cut in a way that it has to be applied along the edge of the glass forming a continuous bead of sealant having a height of about 0.3 in (8 mm) and the bead must be reworked with a spatula. An interior window is opened so as to release pressure in the car before the windshield is lifted in place and pressed lightly to squeeze the sealant and create an attachment. The sealant that oozes out should be wiped off and contacts must be made properly all round with more sealant being laid in places of poor contact. The sealant must be left to cure without interruption in 5 hours in 68-o F (20-o C) or 24 hours in 41-o F (5-o C) and the sealant should be rechecked in case of any probable leakage. Lastly, the mold may be clipped in and the interior mirror and all the trims and garnishes fitted back again.
