Weldwood Contact Adhesive.

Also use a whole pile of clothes pins/pegs to hold edges.

thank you guys! really appreciated your comments. maybe i'm worry too much about windshield replacement. but from when i read, i don't see safelite mention rubber dam during the replacement, when i look up honda part, there are rubber dams in the diagram, do they skip this part?

I have my three piece all cut and ready to glue in. The driver side is flush against the window frame but the passenger side has a gap. I was thinking of using a heat gun to make it fit tight but don't want to melt the plastic. If we have a choice, what comes first, the trim or the windshield?

I see you did not tuck the trim under the windshield weatherstrip. Did it stay this way?
