rs899,
No my trim was uncooperative and required all the squeeze pressure my forearms could muster to get it to "seat" in the groove in the rubber seal. The lower corners were the most difficult and still don't fit completely flush. IMHO they are as close as they are going to get and maybe in time the whole deal will settle some as the body flexes, sun heats things up, etc. For a plastic tool that doesn't mar the finish or hurt the seal try a toothbrush handle! I save old toothbrushes for cleaning stuff and the handles are great for sliding under the rubber lip of the seal and popping it out where you want it. I actually ground down another toothbrush handle to a "knife blade" to scrape out the old sealing compound without hurting the paint. Worked great! I didn't want to use silicone as I was worried that it wouldn't allow the sealant to adhere well when I get to that part. The soap/water worked fine and didn't dry as fast as you would think. I only used a small squirt of soap in a old Armor All spray bottle full of water to apply it. Would I do it again? Absolutely!! Once I figured out how to do it, top first, and had 2 buddies to help it took less than 10 minutes to install the glass. I'm going for a ride in the rain today so I will see if it leaks or not. Putting my $$$ where my mouth is on this one..... RT
