Title: Windshield or Dash - what to install first
Post by: akusler763 on 2023-05-11 16:45
In the experience others have had, what is the best order for installation? Dash , then windshield, or Windshield followed by Dash?

Thanks,
Andy

Agreed, the dash is not in the way of the windshield installation, but accessing the front dash screws might be easier without the windshield in. Not sure if 57 and 58s are the same, but on my 59, there is a row of vertical screws along the front edge of the dashboard that would be much easier to install with the windshield out of the way.

Definitely headliner before back window, much easier installing headliner with windshield out.
