I got all new clips and screws put in today and bought a new windshield gasket. I went ahead and put the lower molding piece on as suggested by a member in another thread.
I have a friend in the glass business and he said they charge $125 to come out and install a new windshield, which I thought was a little high seeing as how I've done most of the work. If my neighbor and I can't get it back in then I might think about calling him. We put the previous one in from the outside with the gasket on the w/s frame and got it after a couple of tries. I haven't tried it with the gasket already on the glass and from the inside
Anyway, I have a tube of the urethane adhesive and I was wondering how much of it to put behind the lower molding. The previous owner made an absolute mess with it and I'm not sure how much is enough and what is too much. Same thing with the vertical pieces, I know there is supposed to be some back there but I don't want to go overboard.
TIA for any help, advice, and words of wisdom.
