I received the AA kit and instructions but the trim clips part seems a little confusing. Maybe it'll all make sense when I get into it.
Thanks |

QUOTE(smg914 @ Apr 27 2009, 10:42 PM)  My advice is to have the windshield installed by a professional. Have him install all new plastic clips too. After he's finished have him install the chrome trim. They will come to your house and they charge about $125.00. Worth every penny. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I had one that I previously purchased installed this past Christmas. I called a glass company and they came out my house and installed it. I used the rubber trim instead but they even installed that too. Guaranteed their work too. That was the best $150 I spent! |

I had a glass company come to my house and installed my windshield, if you tell them before they com out they will bring the rubber trim, he said it is one of the most common of the rubber trims. it looks real nice and everything fits perfect.
