how to install windshield chrome trim
Hi all. Does anyone know what the procedure is to install chrome trim around windshield ? I am trying to insert it in between the rubber molding but I cant figure out how to do it ? Is this a job for a professional ? I brought it to an auto glass place and they didn't want to touch it ! Any insight would be appreciated thanks.

Re: how to install windshield chrome trim
I have just installed new rubber and windshield in my car. After some attempt i did it this way and it worked for me. I installed the rubber towards the cowl first, you need at least one helping hand. When the rubber was in place at the bottom i inserted the windshield in its slot and then put the rest of the rubber around the windshield. I then put some soapy water on the rubber and inside the Chrome frame and slided the chrome frame in place over the rubber/windshield. The lower chrome trim you have to push in place. Use soapy water first and with some effort it will slide in its slot. Sorry for my poor English !
