me and flappyplasticbits have fitted both my front and rear screens with no fairy liquid and a simple gasket scraper, took about 30mins per screen and its a piece of cake

the trick is to put the bottom of the glass in first (looking from the front) then fit either the left or right hand side rubber, then go along the top with a beautiful assistant pushing on the rubber from inside the car, and then the same with the other remaining side

the front windscreen is easier to fit than the rear, as its bigger and easier to work with...


give it a go, and dont be afraid to put reasonable force into it, they are fairly tough

I have a fillet tool, I made it myself for when I changed my Fillet strips last month...

Get a wire coat hanger, cut a 10cm piece out. Bend it into a Diamond shape (about 1cm each side) and then 2 long pieces coming off the bottom of the diamond...

Put a screwdriver in the vice and pull the handle off. Push the 2 long pieces off the diamond wire thing into the Handle of the screwdriver. wrap bare ammounts of Insulation tape around the bottom of the diamond. You have one fillet tool! :cheese:
