I've got a spare windshield for my 68 c50 and would like to replace the original fogged one. I realize there's a hard way and an easy way to do stuff. What's the easy way? I imagine you need new molding. Where do you get it?

Order one for a pick-up, they should be the same. After you get it, you'll need some light duty rope, some silicone spray and a few helping hands. Install the seal to the glass, insert the rope into the seal in the area that goes into the wind frame and set it in place. Try to get as much of the lower part of the seal started over to window frame by hand. Now have several people push in and down on the glass while you pull the rope around the w/sheild. The rope pulls the seal over the edge of the frame without marring it up. Spray the silicone liberally until the seal is installed. After the rope is out, push and shove the glass around until you're satisfied with it's fit.
Easy as that,
Scott

One thing on the 67-72's, put the top in first-the sharp corners are hard to get in. I also usually soak the rubber in hot soapy water or lay it out in the sun on a warm day. Brian
