Can the trim be installed with the windshield on the truck? If so, what's the best way without damaging the trim?

Nope. Trim goes in first, then gasket on windshield, then install.

Very informative video, I will be installing my own trim this weekend since my local glass guy wants 300 bucks to do front and back

That video was a great help. I followed that and was able to install mine in 30 minutes with the help of my friend. Make sure you have the pick, I bought one similiar from Harbor freight.

$300 to install it? Wow. Try a different glass guy. I got quoted $40 to install it by a local windshield place.
