There is ALWAYS the risk of breakage - it's a matter of how big the risk. A competent shop can probably get it done without breaking - but the RISK of breaking is there - so be prepared financially to replace the lass if it does. Most shops, even good ones, will play CYA on such repairs. IIRC, the Bentley says something about using a sealer along with the installation. Be sure that gets done. Otherwise - RISK (that word again) of leaking after done. Best to get it right the first time.
