Back Glass Replacement for Your Ferrari California & California T (2008-2017)
Working on a Ferrari California or the upgraded California T isn't like swapping glass on a standard commuter car. That retractable hardtop mechanism means the back glass has to fit flawlessly, or you're going to deal with wind noise, water leaks, and roof faults. If your rear glass is shattered or cracked, you need a technician who actually knows their way around Italian engineering.

Our Step-by-Step Replacement Process
The tight tolerances on the 2008-2017 California models leave zero room for sloppy work. Here is exactly how I tackle this replacement:
- Protecting the Interior: The first thing I do is drop heavy protective covers over your premium leather seats and the rear deck. We make absolutely sure no broken safety glass or old adhesive makes its way into the cabin or the sensitive convertible top tracks.
- Careful Removal: I extract the damaged glass and carefully disconnect the rear defroster wiring. We vacuum out every single shard of glass from the frame and the surrounding drainage channels.
- Surface Prep: I strip back the old urethane down to a thin, even base layer. If there is any bare metal exposed during the cleanup, I treat it with a high-quality anti-corrosion primer to stop future rust dead in its tracks.
- Adhesive Application: We apply a high-grade, fast-curing automotive urethane. This creates a factory-tight seal that can easily handle the structural flex of the folding roof system without breaking down over time.
- Setting the Glass: The new back glass is carefully dropped into place, aligned perfectly with the roofline, and secured while the urethane cures.
