Question on installation. I plan to install the windshield this weekend and was wondering if I need to glue this 914 Windshield Chrome Replacement Rubber to the perimeter of the windshield prior to mounting the windshield to the car. Anyone with experience in this?

thanks

I had some windshield install adhesive left from trying to repair the rear hatch of my 968 so I used it to hold the seal in place while I lowered the windshield into position. I tried it first without it and that was kind of a PITA. One thing I would say for sure: get some black paint for glass and mask off and paint a 1" border around the windshield. I didn't bother to do that and it looks shitty, the rubber does not cover as much of the windshield as the trim piece and you can kind of see everything that is going on in there, some of the adhesive ribbon, whatever color the inside of the windshield frame is painted and the back edge of the interior trim. It's not a very good look. :-(
