Original window setting tape was trimmed by factory when glass was put in,
That's how it is used, it's really easy to trim, that's probably the easiest part of rebuilding a windshield.
The screws almost never come out intact, you can drill and retap the holes in most cases,
I've done probably 5 of these frames, if screw head shears off drill it out, If it strips in place then you center drill it and then larger drill the remainder of the head,
Most times the blocks are ok, but I've made new ones, pretty easy just find right size bar stock, drill press holes larger drill shoulder indent, tap threads,
I replaced all the slotted head screws with stainless steel Phillips head.
Gentle Men! you can't fight in here! This is the war room!
