Anyone ever gone the DIY route with front and rear screen replacement? I have the new rubbers and the old screens. (I'd have liked to get a laminated screen but the budget's not quite there at the moment so I'm going with what i've got.)

The seal looks like a similar construction to my old Escort's, on which I have replaced both the screens myself previously. To put it (very) simply, you put the rubber on the screen, tie a piece of string around the groove, put the screen in place and slowly pull the string, flipping the lip of the rubber around the pinchweld. Does anyone know if there are any special installation methods, tips or tricks for the Mustang screens?

I know 3M do a window caulking so I'm going to track down some of that.

I've done both of mine. They are easy. Just make sure to use lots of asphault sealant or it will leak.
