I did the front glass using rope by myself. I've never installed glass before but wasnt too tough.
Did you add sealer? in that groove?
I did not. Should I have? I figured if it leaked some clear silicone should seal it up.
I did not use sealer on my Dad's Cyclone. It does not leak.

That's great to hear. I was going to have the local glass guy install it so I was discussing it with him. He didn't think it would need sealer. I knew he does house calls if needed so I decided to give it a try on my own. Turns out it wasn't too bad. Also doing it at home myself gave me a good opportunity to paint the top of the dash.
