Windshield Replacement for Your 2012-2019 Fiat 500 Abarth & Cabrio
The Fiat 500 Abarth and Cabrio models built between 2012 and 2019 are fun, punchy little cars. But because they sit so low to the ground and have a relatively upright glass profile, their windshields are absolute magnets for highway debris. When you catch a rock on the 401 and a crack starts spreading across your line of sight, you need a replacement that respects the tight factory tolerances of this Italian hatchback. At AlexWindshield, we know exactly how to handle the specific quirks of these cars.

How We Replace Your Fiat 500 Windshield
Swapping the glass on a 2012-2019 Fiat 500 Abarth or Cabrio requires a steady hand. The Abarth's stiff sport suspension means any sloppy adhesive work will lead to stress cracks, squeaks, or leaks down the road. Here is exactly how I do the job:
- Interior Protection: First, I cover your dashboard, steering wheel, and front seats with thick protective drop cloths. We keep your interior completely clean and free of debris.
- Glass Removal: I carefully strip away the wipers, side moldings, and cowl. Using specialized cut-out wire tools, I slice through the old factory seal and lift the broken windshield out without scratching your pinch weld.
- Surface Cleaning: I trim the old urethane down to a thin, flat base and thoroughly clean the metal frame. Any dirt or grease left behind will ruin the new seal.
- Primer Application: I apply a premium glass primer to any bare metal spots and the edge of the new windshield. This prevents future rust and ensures a permanent, waterproof bond.
- Adhesive & Installation: Finally, I lay down a thick, consistent bead of high-quality, fast-curing urethane adhesive. I set the new glass perfectly into place, tape it down to prevent shifting, and rebuild your cowl assembly.
