Windshield bead lock

Well i got my bead lock on my windshield. Couple choice words but i got it. The seam clip does not fit the profile of the new lock. Even though it came in the package. I have to grind down the bead lock to get it to fit. See picks of a sample i did. Question is. What is better. Grinding? Or just putting bead lock in with out the clip?

Re: Windshield bead lock

I decided to leave the clip out, and also decided to never use another product besides Precision again. Quality product
