	used 2mm perspex from b&q :lol: cut to shape lay them on top of the glass with something heavy at the top and bottom while i briefly went over with the heat gun to give it the convex shape... p1000'd around the inner edge them stuck them on, spent about an hour holding them in place, once dried enough i went around the outside with some more tiger seal... pics are terrible but its seems a good job ignore the peel off sheet, keeping that on for now for protection :thumbs:

	quote: Originally posted by bigron1988 Mine were fitted with windscreen glue(prob same as stickerflex) with the rubbers around them but there formed so there bent to the shape of the window so they fit great just on the off chance, when i was on fitting my rear one to the fg tailgate a mobile windscreen van pulled up... he fitted the tailgate one for me with all the proper gear and it ended up coming off... i dunno if its just cos it was bonded to fiberglass or not though :( that why i have those butt ugly bolts with big washers in each corner on the above pic quote: Originally posted by Mike I've heard of people painting a border around the edge to cover the adhesive and give a bit more of a factory look. not a bad call :thumbs:
