[Spits] Windshield frame seals - GT6+

[Jim Baustian]

The GT6 Workshop Manual from Standard-Triumph describes a procedure  
for the process of replacing these seals. A quick summary is as follows:
1. Peal back the head liner to gain access to two bolts fastening the  
top of the windshield frame to the top of the car. Remove the bolts.
2. Remove the three bolts that fasten the bottom edge of the  
windshield frame to the car body.
Very little additional information is offered. Answers to the  
following concerns would be greatly appreciated:
1. Will removal of the five bolts mentioned above provide enough  
clearance to remove and replace these seals?
2. Is prying necessary?
3. "Pealing back" a 38 year old headliner could easily require  
replacement of the headliner. The Triumph-Standard manual has  
instructions for this replacement.  Any suggestions gained from  
experience?
