How does the chrome trim fit ??
Hi guys, I've fitted the windscreen + seal to my car, went on no problem. I'm not trying to fit the chrome trim but I am having trouble, do I need a special tool?
Or, has excitement got the better of me and I made the mistake of fitting the windscreen too early without putting the chrome trim on first?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys 👍

Be sure to use plenty soapy water so you can fit the seal all the way in to the lower or upper corners….
including the chrome.
WIpe the fluid off then wait a few days and using black rtv or 3m window weld glue the edge of the seal to the "a" pillar to prevent water intrusion…
only the lip of the seal.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

Thanks guys, I'll make a purchase and give it a go! I'll make sure I've got a bucket of very soapy water 👍

Don't forget the trim clip covers for the ends
