Example: A Back Panel allowance includes a Back Glass R&R of 2.0 hr. The R&I of the back glass is 2.3 hr. The difference of .3 hr. between Back Glass R&R (2.0 hr.) and R&I (2.3 hr.) has not been factored into the Back Panel allowance.
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Labor times for inner panels, rails or reinforcements are with outer panels removed. No back, quarter glass (non-movable) or flush mounted reveal mouldings can be removed without the possibility of breakage or damage that will require replacement. Unintentional damage to glass that is considered a structural member by the vehicle manufacturer may occur when attempting alignment pulls to correct unibody collision damage. Agree beforehand who will incur the charge for damage occurring during normal R&R or R&I operations.
