Replacing the Sunroof on a 1991-1996 Ferrari 512 TR / F512 M
Working on a classic flat-12 like the 1991-1996 Ferrari 512 TR or F512 M is always a privilege. If you have a cracked, scratched, or leaking sunroof on one of these Italian legends, you already know you can't just hand the keys to a standard quick-lube shop. These cars require a specific touch. At AlexWindshield, we handle high-end exotic glass replacements with the exact precision a vintage Ferrari demands.

Our Step-by-Step Replacement Process
Replacing glass on a 90s Ferrari means taking your time and doing things by the book. Here is exactly how I handle your sunroof replacement from start to finish:
- Interior Protection: Before I even pick up a tool, I cover your seats, center console, and carpets with heavy-duty protective blankets. We do not take chances with vintage Connolly leather.
- Careful Removal: I use specialized wire-cutting tools to slice through the old urethane or weatherstripping. This lets me lift the old sunroof glass out without putting any stress on the surrounding roof panel or scratching that classic Rosso Corsa paint.
- Surface Cleaning: The frame and pinch weld get stripped of old adhesive, dirt, and debris. A perfectly clean surface is the only way to guarantee a tight, permanent seal.
- Primer Application: Any exposed bare metal gets a coat of high-grade glass primer. This prevents future rust and gives the new adhesive something solid to bite into.
- Adhesive and Installation: I lay down a thick, consistent bead of premium, fast-curing automotive urethane. Finally, the new sunroof glass is carefully dropped into place, aligned perfectly with the roofline, and secured until the adhesive sets.
