Windshield woes or, Don't tug on that! You don't know what it is attached to&# Options

[dinomium]

Buckaroo Bonzai was right!
Last night I thought I would spruce up the green machine and fix the windshield trim. Well, I lifted up a section of trim and the WHOLE FREAKING windshield came out!!! Sorry Kevin, there goes the spare windshield!

So now I guess I am going to learn glass installation! LAME!
I know I need 914 552 263 10, lower windshield to glass gasket, but what else? I can't tell if that black stuff is 37 yo tape or a gasket that the tape was on?? Are the trim clips a NLA item? Should I just get some ww1 goggles?

Re opening the tape versus tube debate as well!

And what would a Dinomium project be without a "While yer in there item"? The dash pad is cracked an worn out. It is this significantly easier to replace with the glass removed?

tube are tape they are both easy it is best to find a frined who will help you put the windsheild down,, if you use the tape ,,as soon as it touchs it it will stay there,, if you use the tube be ready to use popsicle stick piece at the bottom while it cure to maintain the space at the bottom, the clip are still available new from pelican or dealer

the windsheild to dash gasket is still available ( at least it was last year) but if it is good and you dont pull on it you can change the windsheild without touching it

as for the dash pad it's not that easier with the windsheild out , but i hate the look of crack unless ( . )( . )
