It goes in as a complete assembly.
Put the glass in the gasket (both sides).
Insert the stainless in the groove in the gasket (this can be a pain) use soapy water or glass cleaner as a lube to help you. Leave the center strip for last.
Turn assembly over and insert a 1/8 in rope into the groove for the pinchweld. Start and stop in the center of one of the windshields and over lap about an inch. Tape rope to the glass to hold it in place. Spray entire gasket with lube.
Using 2 people place the assembly into the opening and center it.
As 1 person holds the assembly on the outside, have the 2nd person go inside and start pulling on the rope (always pull towards the center of the glass) Pull one way and than the other, trying to pull even distances on both sides.
The person on the outside should follow the rope patting on the glass with an open hand to ensure the gasket seats. Do this all the way around til the rope pulls out. Again with an open hand pat the perimeter of the glass all the way around. If the gasket looks seated in the opening install the center strip.
Tip: You can slap the glass pretty hard with an open hand, just don't try to beat it in.
