1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This section contains descriptions and procedures for interior and exterior body service operations for 'SL', Berlina and
Calais 'VL' Series Models. The completely restyled front end consists of new sheetmetal bolt-on components attached to
an integral body frame construction.
The new front end panel houses homofocal headlamps on all models with remote controlled headlamp part covers
featured on Calais models.
A new bonded windshield using installation procedures similar to those employed on the 'J' Series Camira is introduced..
Exterior mouldings, badges and nameplates are new.
The Calais interior features new door and seat trim designs and materials. On all models the method for retaining the
front end of the headlining has been revised.
Also new are the instrument panel facia, pad, housing and switches, radio facia and graphics, and a modular designed
transmission console.

2. SERVICE NOTES
CAUTION: As a sound deadening medium, a small SIDE OUTER
volume of polyurethane foam is installed into the upper ACCESS OPENING FOR. EXT. PANEL
section of the rear body pillars of VL Series sedans, as POLYURETHANE FOAM
illustrated in the shaded areas in Fig. 1A-1. During QUARTER INNER ]
normal service operations, there is no risk associated PP E R R E IN CE E
with its use. However, when polyurethane is subjected to : :
: ;
high temperatures such as during welding or naked flame �
cutting, this material can release black pungent fumes.
During repair of the body structure involving high heat '\::,;C·��,,
application, appropriate precautions against fume inhala SIDE INNER EXT. PANEL
tion such as the wearing of respirators, forced ventilation,
etc., are mandatory. Whenever possible, such repairs
should be carried out without the use of high temperature
producing equipment.

\ ) 2.5 METAL REPLACEMENT PARTS
FINISHING
Metal service replacement parts (or assemblies) are
painted with a black, 'high-bake' factory primer. For
proper adhesion of colour coats in service, the following
refinish steps are necessary.
1. Clean part with a wax and grease removing solvent
such as Prepsol.
2. Scuff-sand panel lightly with wet or dry number 400
paper and water. Avoid cut-throughs. Reclean part,
then apply sealer to entire part.
3. If factory primer coat has been cut through, apply
metal conditioner to the exposed bare metal. Follow
directions on container label.
4. Apply primer-surfacer to entire part; allow to dry
thoroughly before sanding.
5. Sand primer-surfacer using wet or dry number 400
paper and water. Do not sand sealer.
6. Re-clean part.
7. Apply colour coats to parts.
8. Follow direction on container label for drying time
before compounding.
9. Compound part by hand or with power equipment.
10. Nonsealing polish may be applied after rub-out if
desired. Waxes, however, should NOT be applied
until the paint finish has aged for at least two
months.
)
2.6 BODY LUBRICATION
The moving mechanical parts of the body which have
metal to metal contact are lubricated at assembly.
Operating conditions, whether normal or otherwise, de
termine the effective life of the lubricant and for this
reason, lubrication in service is important.
Equally important is the type of lubricant to be used and
for your guidance we list locations and recommended
lubricants.
WARNING: CARELESS OR EXCESSIVE APPLICATION
OF BODY LUBRICANTS CAN RESULT IN STAINING
OF PAINT FINISH, INTERIOR TRIM OR DAMAGE TO
CLOTHING. USE LUBRICANTS SPARINGLY AND RE
MOVE ACCIDENTAL APPLICATION FROM PAINT FIN
ISH IMMEDIATELY.

2.1 UNDERBODY ALIGNMENT
,,,,---� Correct underbody alignment is essential, as any mis-
( '. alignment of the underbody can adversely effect sus
pension, fitment of doors, engine hood, tail gate or rear
compartment lid. The underbody should therefore be
aligned to within 1.0 mm of dimensions specified in
Fig. 1 A-4. These dimensions should be accurately chec
ked with a tram gauge consisting of a parallel bar or rod,
fitted with two adjustable trammels, capable of gauging
all underbody dimensions specified.
In preparing for an underbody alignment check, place the
vehicle on a level surface with the weight of the body
supported at wheel locations.

Front and rear door assemblies consist of outer panels· which are hemmed at ,their outer edges, over the inner panels.
These hemmed edges are then welded. A rolled upper door frame retains the sliding glass run channels. Door hinge
male sections are welded to the door facings and the female sections to the body pillars. Door check and hold open
links are located between the door assemblies and the body pillars.
On front doors, double arm scissor type window regulators attached to the glass lifter channels and door inner panels
operate the front door sliding windows. Cable type mechanisms attached to the door inner panels and glass lifter
channels operate the rear door sliding windows.
Electric motors for operating the front and rear sliding windows are optionally available on Calais and Berlina models.
Lift bar exterior door handles operate the fork type door locks in conjunction with door lock striker bolts.
A two (2) key locking system uses a primary key (black plastic coated key head) to operate all locks on the vehicle. A
secondary (all metal) key, operates the door and ignition locks only. Slider assemblies mounted on the door inner panels
operate the door locks internally.
Electric door lock actuators which operate the door locks on Calais models, are optional on Berlina models.
Door weatherstrips incorporate plastic clips which retain the weatherstrip in holes located around the outer lower edge of
(.___./) the door inner panel. The upper section of the weatherstrip is retained in a channel which is an integral part of the rolled
section upper door frame.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
(\ \
)
Two different installation methods are used when installing stationary glass to VL Models.
The windshield, which is laminated and features a tinted upper band, the tail gate glass on station wagons which has an
electrically heated demist facility and the quarter windows on sedans; are all bonded in the body apertures with urethane
adhesive.
The rear window on sedans and rear quarter windows on station wagons use the conventional rubber weatherstrip and
non hardening sealer method of installation.
Armour plate glass is used for all windows except the windshield.
For replacement of urethane adhesive bonded glasses, urethane adhesive kits have been developed and must be used
to maintain original installation requirements. Glass installed with urethane adhesive requires either partial or complete
removal of the urethane adhesive when replacing the glass. Partial removal of the urethane adhesive is referred to as
the 'short method'. Complete removal of the urethane is known as the 'long method'.
The short method is used where original urethane adhesive left on body opening pinchweld flanges after glass removal
can serve as a base for the new glass. This method would be used in cases of replacement of cracked windshields or
removal of glass that is still intact. The amount of urethane left in the glass opening can be controlled during glass
removal, leaving the maximum amount of original urethane intact on the body opening flange.
The long method is to be used when the original urethane adhesive left in the window opening after glass removal
cannot serve as a base for replacement glass. This method would be used in cases needing metal work or where paint
refinishing is required in the opening; or in cases where the glass has been previously replaced, using the short method.
In such instances, the build up of urethane could position the glass too high in the opening. In these cases, the original
urethane is completely removed and replaced with new urethane during glass installation.
2. SERVICE NOTES
WARNING: SAFETY GLASSES AND WORK GLOVES
MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES WHEN OPERATING
WITH GLASS.
NOTE: Skinning (partial curing) of the urethane com
mences after exposure to the atmosphere. At 23 degrees
celcius and 50 percent relative humidity, skinning com
mences after 30 minutes, therefore, installation of mould
ings must be completed within that time limit.
Complete curing of urethane at this temperature and
humidity takes 72 hours.

DESCRIPTION
Short method installation involves the maximum amount
of the original urethane being left intact on the body
opening to form a sound base for the replacement
adhesive and windshield.
This method is recommended when replacing a cracked
or broken windshield, or a leak condition that cannot be
overcome by using minor water leak repair procedures.
If material other than urethane has been used for
previous servicing of the windshield, the long method
installation procedure (complete removal of adhesive) is
mandatory to achieve an effective glass to metal bond.
REINSTALL
1. Thoroughly clean the inner surface and edges of the
windshield which is to contact the new urethane,
using clean cloths and a suitable oil-free cleaning
solvent.

DESCRIPTION
The long method windshield replacement is used when
original urethane adhesive material cannot serve as a
base for the replacement windshield.
This method should be used on vehicles requiring metal
or paint repair to the windshield opening when original
adhesive is completely removed and replaced with new
urethane for windshield installation.
This method is also used when the windhsield has been
previously replaced, using the short method. In such
instances, the build-up of urethane could position the
windshield too high in the opening.
REMOVAL
1. Remove the windshield (refer 3.1).
2. Using a hot knife and/or sharp scraper, remove the
original urethane from around the entire perimeter of
the windshield opening flange.

The quarter window removal procedure is similar for both
the short and long installation methods with one
exception.
If the short method installation is to be used, more care
must be taken during glass removal to ensure that an
even surface of the original remaining urethane exists on
the quarter window aperature flanges to serve as a base
for the new urethane/ silicone bead and the replacement
glass.
1. To prevent damage to paint finish and trim and to
minimise clean up, mask and place protective covers

DESCRIPTION
Short method installation of rear quarter glass is used
where the maximum amount of original urethane adhesive
is left intact on the body opening to form a base for the
replacement adhesive and glass. This method should be
used when replacing a cracked glass or correcting a leak
condition that cannot be overcome by using minor water
leak repair procedures. Any previous service installation
using other adhesive materials requires complete replace
ment of materials to achieve an effective glass to metal
bond.
REINSTALL
1. Thoroughly clean surface of glass to which new
urethane/silicone is to contact (including edge of
glass). Use clean cloths with a suitable oil free
cleaning solvent.
2. Using an applicator supplied in short method replace
ment kit (No. 92018611) apply HN1747 clear glass
primer around entire perimeter of glass edge and
12 mm in from edge of glass. This is a wipe on/wipe
off operation, using clean lint free cloths (refer
Fig. 1A-92, ('E').
3. Using a second applicator, apply HN1748 glass
primer (black) around entire perimeter of glass edge
and on glass bonding surface (refer Fig. 1A-92, ('G').
Allow primer to dry for 15 minutes. Avoid touching
primed area of glass.
4. Install glass with its inner surface facing upwards into
garnish moulding as illustrated in Fig. 1A-92, ('H'),
then firmly press glass onto butyl strips located on
garnish moulding recess.

DESCRIPTION
The long method of glass replacement is used when
original urethane adhesive material cannot serve as a
base for replacement glass.
This method should be used on vehicles requiring metal
or paint repair to the quarter window aperture flange
when original adhesive is completely removed and
repla�ed with new urethane for glass installation.
This method is also used when the quarter window has
been previously replaced using the short method. In such
instances, the build-up of urethane/ silicone could position
the glass too far out of the opening.
REINSTALL
1. Using the cold knife and/ or sharp scraper, remove
original urethane from around entire perimeter of
quarter window aperture flange.
2. Using an applicator supplied in long method replace
ment kit No. 92018612, apply HN1752 (flange
primer) to any section of the quarter window aperture
( \
flange that is back to bare metal or has be�n
\�j cleaned back to original paint surface (refer Fig. 1A-

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The roof headlining which follows the contour of the roof, is supported in its curved shape by transverse listing wires
installed in grommets which are located in holes spaced at regular intervals along the roof side rails, as illustrated in
Figs. 1 A-135 and 1 A-136, Section C-C. The listing wires are inserted through a series of stiched listing pockets, each
coinciding with stitch lines visible across the headlining.
A retainer attached to the front of the headlining is
installed, under tension, into a channel, which is an
integral part of the windshield finishing lace (refer
Figs. 1 A-135 and 1 A-136, Sections A-A and B-8).
The remaining edges of the headlining are attached to
the side flanges, centre and rear pillars and on station
wagons, the rear retainer, with trim cement (refer
Figs. 1 A-135, Sections C-C and G-G and Fig. 1 A-136
Sections C-C and 1-1).
Finishing lace surrounding the door openings assists in
retaining the headlining edges.
NOTE: Clean hands are essential when working on the
body interior trim.

1. If listing wires have been removed from the headli
ning or if a new headlining is to be installed, install
listing wires· in their correct listing pockets.
NOTE: Listing wires are identified by coloured paint in the
centre of each wire as follows:
Front listing wire - Yellow
Intermediate listing wires - Green
Rear listing wire - Plain
2. Apply a 50 mm wide band of trim cement around
)
edges of headlining are to be attached.
4. Install ends of number 3 listing wire on sedans and
'
number 4 on station wagons, into grommets located
in the roof side rail. Pierce the listing pocket in line
with the roof support clinch-over tabs, locate the tabs
through the pocket, under the listing wire, then bend
the tabs over, firmly securing the listing wire to the
roof support (refer Figs. 1A-141 and 1A-142 Sections
C-C and D-D).
Repeat this operation on number 2 listing wire on
sedans and number 2 and 3 listing wires on station
wagons.
NOTE: If a new headlining is being installed, it may be
necessary to trim listing pockets away from listing wires
sufficiently to avoid 'bunching up' of headlining material
