Thanks to all who offer advice a few weeks ago on windshield installation.  I 
have just finished the job, and while it was not really easy, it was MUCH 
less difficult than I had expected.  For those interested I used KY jelly and 
heavy nylon cord--like used in a chalk line.  The window pretty much 
installed itself with some straightening of the gasket afterwards.  Found a 
handy tool for manipulating the gasket, I happened to have an old (very 
old!!) medical scalpel.  It was brass under the chrome plate.  The flat end 
with a little curve bent into it was perfect!!
Thanks to all
Joe Garrison
