Ok, I have had my windshield installed with urethane sealant and rubber seal. Prior to this installation, I had another 914 sealed the same way. I do not want to get into whether to use original windshield installation methods, etc.

The problem relates to the lower corners do not want to lay down and flatten out. I have used heat lamp, tape, etc over extended periods of time. I have even used gorilla tape to hold the rubber seal down. It just does not want to stay flat. The problem relates to how can solve this problem and keep the rain/water out of the windshield area. I have come to the point of using two part urethane seal/glue and tape/weight the corners down. When considering methods such as this the job usually gets sloppy and does not work well.

I need suggestions on how I can get the rubber corners to lay flat and stay flat. Any suggestions or knowledge is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
