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)
