Re: 60 windshield install

I would love to see video of the factory installing these. Certainly they had some fixtures but it was ultimately 2 or maybe even 4 people doing it. Even if it took 2, 3, or 4 stations that would only have been 2, 3, or 4 minutes.

I remember watching 4 guys in a Cadillac plant installing vinyl tops. In three stations they sprayed glue on the steel top, took a LARGE rectangular sheet of vinyl, stuck it to the steel (with the seams straight & no bubbles), pressed it all down, and trimmed around all the edges. In under 3 minutes. I couldn't believe it. Had to wait for the next vinyl top car to come by to see it again. And then again because I still didn't believe it.
