Brother-in-law Bill and son Bruce helped get the windshield and newly-tinted backlight installed with new LMC gaskets.
Thanks to this video from Precision (

We used paracord to pull the gasket over the pinchwelds, started at the top of the windshield and at the bottom of the backlight - getting the sharp corners done first seems to help make the rounded corners easier.
For tools, we used a wooden paint stir stick that I shaved the edges down on, and a cotter-pin puller for the hook tool.
I'm SO glad we don't have the chrome trim, this sure looks easier to do without it!
