Default Roadster Open Car Windshield Gasket

I have a 1930 Standard Roadster and purchased the Open Car Windshield Gasket for that vehicle. Can anyone show me where it goes and how it gets attached? Contact cement? Should the windshield swing in so the windshield can be laid down flat? Mine hits the metal dash below the windshield frame preventing it swinging in. Seems like the Open Car Windshield Gasket will make it even worse.

Here's a picture of Marco's Roadster. There is a channel on the bottom and sides of
the frame that the rubber slides into.

Hello,


Make sure that holes remain open at the bottom of the frame. Otherwise water accumulates in it and the frame rusts.
