Where did you get the screen rubber?
Too thick in the 4 corners...... when you try to get the end piece's on and try to line up the screw holes it won't fit.......then when you tap the end pieces with a hammer the glass breaks .......I think the answer is to cut the corners out ( notch) and don't use a hammer......I just picked up another windshield from Eric and not even home yet......bad New s is it is a series 1 and my car is ser 2 so I must switch vertical side pieces and the rubber once again......wish me luck ......ps ...I got the rubber from McGregor
I think it was MacGregor????
The four corners are too big for the vertical sides to go on and line up the screw holes.....and if you tap the frame with a hammer the glass break's
Late series much easier as has one piece frame.... early cars have 4 pieces and screws holes have to line up.... hard to do when rubber is too thick.....I think notch cutting the corners of rubber is the answer
I have your frame with glass, Mike, but Pennsylvania is a hike for you. Sorry, but I stopped shipping windshields due to breakage.
The seller doesn't give good pics of the lower corners, but pic #1 makes it appear they're angled and, if so, it's Series II. I'm pretty sure I have a correct SI frame/glass on the shelf, but I no longer ship glass. Here's the overpriced eBay frame:
YES
The one I see is whole car for sale for 2k
series 1 and they are different
Yes and they are differnt andle where it meets the door
