Reassembly sequence

[KenZ]

The interior on our duster is completely gutted and all glass is out. We've installed the headliner. We have a couple of question regarding the order to install some stuff.

Should we put the rear window in before or after the package tray and side panels?

Should we put the firewall insulation in before or after the heater/ac assembly, steering column, etc?

Thanks,
Ken

The glass can go in before the package tray. Do you have separate side/sail panels? If so, they should be able to go in after the glass. If your sail panels were part of the headliner (one piece), then before the glass.

Build from the firewall out. IE: Insulation, heater box, dash, column. The sequence isn't necessarily set in stone.

Thanks for the reply. The Duster has the original fiberboard headliner and the separate plastic side/sail panels so we'll install the rear window next.

Thanks again for the help.
