Door Glass Replacement for the 2022-2027 Ferrari 296 GTB & GTS
Working on a Ferrari 296 GTB or GTS isn't your everyday glass job. The 2022-2027 models use a precision frameless window design that seals aggressively against the roofline to handle serious aerodynamic loads. When that side door glass shatters, you need a technician who knows exactly how to navigate intricate door panels, sensitive electronics, and premium leather trim without leaving a single scratch. I've spent years turning wrenches and setting glass on high-end exotics, and we handle your Ferrari with the exact same respect you do.
Our Step-by-Step Replacement Process
I always tell my crew that patience and a clean workspace are everything when dealing with Italian sports cars. We follow a strict, factory-level procedure to get your window operating flawlessly.
- Interior Protection: First things first. We drape your seats, center console, and carbon fiber door sills with heavy-duty protective covers. Tempered door glass breaks into thousands of tiny shards, and we make absolutely sure your cabin stays immaculate before we even touch a tool.
- Panel & Glass Removal: We carefully unclip the inner door panel using specialized non-marring pry tools. After disconnecting the wiring harnesses and switches, we use a high-powered vacuum to pull every piece of broken glass from deep inside the door cavity and the drain holes.
- Surface Cleaning: We wipe down the window regulator tracks and mounting points with specialized solvents. Any leftover grease, old glue, or grit left behind will cause the new window to bind, squeak, or scratch the fresh glass.
- Primer and Adhesive Installation: Supercar window assemblies often require directly bonding the glass to the lifting brackets to handle high-speed vibrations. We apply a premium glass primer to the mating surfaces, followed by a high-quality automotive adhesive to secure the glass into the lower track. This guarantees a rock-solid hold that won't shift when you slam the door.
- Alignment & Testing: We drop the new glass in, bolt everything down, and calibrate the automatic window-drop feature that triggers when you pull the exterior handle. We adjust the pitch and height so it lines up perfectly with the factory weatherstripping to keep wind noise out.
