Windshield moulding installation

1. Do i need to install the windshield moulding immediately after i set the glass? Or can i set the glass and then install the moulding on another day?
2. Also, what order is the moulding installed in. Bottom strip-top strip-side pieces? then move to the back. I cant remember its been so long.
thanks

Thanks Ken-i wasnt sure if i should install it at the same time because it helped snug the windshield and glue into place. I appreciate the help.
