One basic question I seem to be missing the answer to. Do you put the gasket on the windshield first and then install it or do you put the gasket on the car first and then install the glass?




The overall answer to this question is

IF the gasket has a filler or selflocking strip in it 99% of the time you install the gasket first then the glass into the gasket..

If the gasket has no additional filler strips or any type of self locking strip the gasket goes onto the glass then install entire assembly ( glass and installed gasket) into car, usually with a 1/8" rope trick....
