Windshield lower filler
Hi,
Does anybody has a pic or 2 of how to install the windshield lower filler?
Are they installed before or after the windshield?
Does the windshield rests on the top or against it?
The AIM is not that clear. They recommended to bend a tab to achieve 0.36 but I am not sure with regards to what...
I am preparing to install my new windshield on my 76, and dry fits are raising quite a few questions...
Thanks,
Ced

Thanks Willcox, nwav8tor, the links did not work either, I thought it was my phone...
From what I have seen, it looks like the filler would have to go after the windshield. With them on, it it quite difficult to place the windshield.
the tab on the fillers can bent so that they are against the windshield but not pushing too hard and risking cracking it.
