Windscreen Final Fit

Gulp - this was it, onto the real thing and time to start fitting the glass.   Actually it was relatively easy, following on from previous blogs the glass goes in fine with a little washing up liquid and persuasion.  I don't have many pics but I hit a couple of snags, I damaged the paint work with the ratchet straps but more frustratingly I didn't account for the extra length required for the rubber.

After an hour of measuring, filing and fettling I managed to get some offcuts in place ready for filling:

I also decided to grind down the screwheads each side; even though I countersunk each it would look naff not being painted and I wouldn't get a flat finish without at least taking a bit off.  Why not go the whole hog and grind them completely?  Yes, I will need to take the frame off should the glass crack - but I will likely have to do that anyway so preferred to go with looks rather than "what ifs":

Some decent body filler, sanding, patience and a few more coats of paint later I managed to get it fitted.  Again, not many pictures but here is the finished result:

And my heater vents ready to go :)
