So I know the rope drill, but my new rubber gasket fits the glass loosely. The many contours of the glass don't seem to keep the rubber on the glass......any tips? Thanks Bolters, super frustrated in Denver.

Marko. ** If your not using "Steel Products" windshield rubber you are wasting your time. 3 times the price but will last for many years {not months}.

Are you using original front glass? I've experienced sometimes the newer glass is cut a little smaller which would account for the sloppy fit. Steele is the best rubber.

Agreed on both counts,my glass fit at the lower corners was shocking.
P.S. This is a double post,there's also one in the Paint and Body section.
Tinnerjohn has pretty well covered all the bases there.
