I built my whole car from scratch (HQ Van)and have owned/done a few,but the one thing I always do is pay to have the windscreen fitted by professionals.
trust me its the safest thing to do,save money somewhere else is my advise...have a look here..

professional or not, make sure you tell them to put the corners in first !, top and side strips second...

It's a good idea to ask around about an 'old school' windscreen fitter. Many guys who are good tradesman & totally competent at fitting modern bonded windscreens have serious difficulties with old style rubber mounted glass.

It might be difficult but try & find a fitter with grey hair.
