The windshield has been difficult to get a seal all the way around the frame opening and the tape will not retract far enough to pull it tight. I used a couple of glass suction cups to pull the windshield into place. I used some rubber protectorant to allow a plastic putty knife to slide between the seal and the frame opening and let the seal lay flat. Doing this I noticed that the frame was about 1/4 inch to the right off center. Eventually removed the hinges and found one of them has the slotted mounting holes off center by a little over 1/8 inch preventing moving the windshield in the direction I need to go.Going to try enlarging the slotted holes and see if that helps. Once I get the frame in place as best I can, (not sure they are ever a complete seal. Then I will go back to attacking the tape retracting issue.
