 Double-check the windscreen fit for equal gap all the way around. The ideal gap is 2mm.
If the gap is too small, mark the screen for sanding.
 We can now prepare the windscreen for fitting to the fuselage. Use a light inside the
cockpit and shine it towards the outside of the aircraft. Using the shadow of the
fuselage's windscreen frame, trace the windscreen mounting lip line with a marker on the
outside. Allow about 1mm extra, because we use this line to paint the windscreen. This
will give the plane a professional finish just like the factory ones.
 Now repeat all the steps above for the the sunroof. Be sure to check first that the
mounting lip doesn't have any traces of body filler. Remove if necessary.
