    New rubber gasket, lots of Go-Jo hand cleaner for lube, a good helper & patience. Trim goes into rubber first, then install ... take your time.

    The windshield on these do not go in like that. The chrome goes on first on the pinch weld, then the windshield and rubber goes in from the inside and then the inside trim goes on and holds the rubber tight against the body. Make sure all your surfaces on the inside are straight and clean. I used sealer all the way around where the rubber sits against the metal. I had help because it is really a 2 man job to get it in. Also make sure you have something covering the dash or you will scratch it.
