David,

Install it after the windshield is in. I got it started at the center top and 
used a rubber mallet to keep tapping it around then cut to length.  It also 
helps to use some liquid soap in the groove, it got in there with a plastic 
(picnic type) knife usind the dull side of the blade.

Hey List!

Am am installing a new windscreen and have the gasket installed into the 
new window with
a non-hardening sealer. The chromed plastic finisher strip, however, is 
like a coiled
spring! Also, the gasket groove into which it is supposed to fit (before 
installing it into
the windscreen frame, according to the Moss instructions) doesn't really 
hold the strip
firmly in place - if I installed the windscreen into the frame, I am 
sure the groove for the
finisher strip would then close-up too much to install it! I have now 
uncoiled the strip
and clipped each end, stretching it ut as full-length as I can. Maybe 
tomorrow it will
behave better... Are there any tricks for installation of this? I know 
the list has covered
this in olden times but I see nothing on this on VTR, Buckeye, the 
6-Pack archives...

Any help appreciated....

Cheers!

Dave
