[TR] TR3 windscreen installation

I laid a pad downstairs first to position the frame, but you need to have a helper to set it on place.

How do you do it without scratching the paint?
Mine is the later style, held on with machine screws. 
I've got the glass in the frame, and the tenons and stanchions attached. So now there are the pieces that go against the body, and the stanchions that will cover them. I can imagine somehow holding them all together and sliding the assembly downward, but I'm sure I'd scratch the paint. I tried sticking them on the body using a bit of plumber's putty and sliding the windshield assembly backward, but it hit the wiper shafts.
What's the trick?
Jim
