installing a windshield
I have searched and read all threads on windshield moldings, but Im looking for more info on the removal of a broken windshield and installing one from a junk car.
what should be done to remove the windshield, I was thinking of using duct tape and cardboard on the interior side of the windshield and use my feet to push it out, then clean up all the mess and use a windshield sealer to install the windshield that im getting from the local salvage yard for $50.
I have never replaced a windshield before, I have only kicked them out of old derby cars.
any tips and info would be great

Don't know what derby cars you kicked windshields out of, but in my experience that isn't going to work too well on our cars.
