I am sure to be corrected if mistaken, but I believe the two screws  
on the windshield stanchion are unique, and of different lengths.  


I believe I will go with the screws are screwed up theory. I remember  
putting the top screw in, being concerned about the length and therefore not  
tightening it properly.  Now FT tells me that:
 
Yes you have 3 different size 
screws with the longest in the center,  I lean toward the screw being too 
long and cracking the glass.    FT
 
Are the correct screws available anywhere?  Geez, they are making  this 
hard.  TRF shows only one part # 552662 and has the warning  that a screw too 
long will crack the glass. 
 
Thanks to all for the information,
Darrell
