installing front windshield
#4
well if u must do it urself...u will need window weld not silicone, silicon will properly seal the window but not keep it in place...u can get window weld from home depot, its about 12bucks a tube.
but why not just get a guy to come out to your place and do it...my crx windshield was $110 installed at my house...miracle auto glass did it, bargain with em and ask for the best possible deal, some polish guy came out and voila installed it quick time!

you cut out the old windshield using a piano wire, then you take and X_acto knife and clean up the glue so that there is like 1-2 mm of old glue left in the channel, then you replace the clips to hold the window, and apply the fresh glue on top of the old glue. Install the window moulding and window before the glue sets. Follow instructions on glue.
IMO, way easier to just get it done someplace.
FYI, Saturn windshields are $1100 a pop, for the windshield alone, and NONE of them can be taken out from a junked car. You HAVE to buy new. So don't complain about $120 for a Honda windshield.

very few of them have that sensor (and it's actually on the mirror and can be removed if u REALLY want too.
if u shop around u can get stuff a LOT cheaper
windshields are only expensive when insurance is paying.
