Unhappy Mustang Front windshield... again

Yes guys, from who remember around march and then in January I was building that mustang. The one that I had broke the windshield and bought another kit just for the windshield... well finally getting some time to put it all together... I break this one! I need to get this thing done by the weekend.... So I will be buying my 3rd Mustang and only using the windshield.... Anyone have advice putting them in without breaking them and having all the parts fit?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, but also I remember atleast one other person having trouble getting the windshield in because the dash got in the way. Anyone else have this problem?

Maybe some clear styrene sheets will be cheaper, and if they break, they can easily be replaced by cutting out another piece...

The problem with clear styrene or acetate is getting the curvature right. The curve at the bottom of a Mustang's windshield is bigger than the top. Best solution would be vacuuformed windshields.
