windscreen rubber

how do you fit the plastic trim in the
screen rubber
thanks

[bmcecosse]

Very carefully............. best if warm day with sun shining on the screen. Feed the plastic in and run round with a special tool to ease the strip into the rubber gap. Something like this - or make a version yourself....

I made one with a bit of welding rod and an old file handle, has been used to put in several trims

[bmcecosse]

Yes - that's exactly what I have too.

I'm going to buy a heated rear screen in the morning,and then beg an old mate out of retirement to fit it ,he was a whizz in the 70's,
should i buy him a pint or a half

Since fitting a rear screen is an absolute nightmare... a nice bottle of Whisky will be required I suggest.....

Phoned my mate Bud today ,and no problem ,doing it next week ,weather permitting .Still negotiating the "price",suppose it depends how it goes

I will post pictures of each stage (problem !)

We've fitted about 5. Never had a problem. Ok it takes time, gentle "persuasion" + a few rude words
