I had to replace the windshield seal and now can't get the chrome to fit.  Has anyone had this problem?

Hello pferg,
The chrome trim which fits in the rubber around the windshield should be installed in the rubber and on the windshield before installation!

Be careful not to distort or bend this trim or you will have to carefully re-shape it before installing it.
