Aftermarket windshield rubber, what are my options? Options

[streetrover]

Hi Guys,

Okay, I'm looking to install the windshield in a few weeks. I noticed these two how-to links that both use the 3m window-weld and a prep cleaner/adhesive.

Glass Action

Hart's 73

They also use a rubber replacement for the windshield trim pieces (from 914rubber.com). I like this look, but also seem to recall someone on ebay offering a rubber seal that, at least as I remember it, installed the windshield in a method similar to VW windshields. The glass fit into a groove in the rubber and another groove on the other side fit onto the metal of the windshield frame.

Is my memory failing? Does such a thing exist? Has anyone used this option?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I do also sell on Ebay, 914Rubber, there may be someone else also, but I haven't seen another listing for the same product, but I haven't really been searching.

The one I sell has a grove with a bead of butyl rubber in the grove to help hold it in place on the edge of the glass.

Very nicely detailed write ups, and professional installation. The clips are only necessary for the metal trim (little black ones that pin into the wind screen frame-19 to be exact).
