Thread: Windshield Installation

Tweet

Dave & Brian,

Thanks for the info. Roger on the build out of the pinch weld as the best option. However, that is major, major work for me. I'd have to build it up 5/8" all around, and not hose up the already-painted body. It would also make a big "ledge" inside that I would have to finish and paint.

I'm thinking of another option, since I'm not really stuck on a flush mount. The whole window channel is already painted and cleared, so it will look OK, even with a sunken windshield.

If I can find the right molding, either an h (first pic), or a T-shaped press- in, (second pic), I could do what's shown below. It just means I tossed out about $50 in urethane, primer and molding.

Now, I just have to find the molding.
