Subject:Windshield replacement =?UTF-8?Q?gotchas=3F?=

Due to a "smooth move" involving some 2x6s and a short stop, I'm
replacing my windshield early next week with a new one and a new solid
style gasket.  I've done an early Scirocco before, and other Vanagon
glass, so I'm not without some experience.  Any last minute advice for a
DIYer?  Any gotchas?  The auto glass guys said there may be some of the
"alligator" clips in there, that they usually remove.  I was thinking of
using a black polyurethane as a sealant.

Thanks in advance.
