Windshield spacer location, Does it just go on top of the clips Options

[Highland]

I've been unable to find a good illustration of where the windshield spacer goes. Is the below figure correct?

Looks right. Make sure you use the right thickness of Butyl (IIRC it’s 5/16”...but check with 914rubber) if you use anything thicker than spec, it may be difficult to get the trim to snap in to the clips. And don’t forget to put all of the trim clips in first (ask me how I know).

Some tips on laying it in...

Test fit without butyl and get the gaps perfect. Then put painters tape across the glass and frame on the top, bottom and sides, like a cross. Draw a line with a sharpie across the tape, bridging the gap between the frame and glass. Then use a razor blade to slice the tape in the gap so half of it stays on the glass and the other stays on the frame. Remove the windshield, prime the frame and add the butyl. Now, when you go to place the glass, it’s a no-brainer to line it up perfectly. Just get the sharpie lines to match up again and lower the glass onto the butyl. Be really careful pushing the glass against it...especially around the edges. Easier to see than to describe, but you get the idea. I’ll shoot a video when the bumblebee is out of paint....
