This will trip your trigger. The screws that come with the windshield are all the same length!
The problem you will find is many, many of the windshields (Out of the frame) looks like they were cut by hand! Thus leaving a very rough edge with multiple high edges. If one of your screws goes in and just touches one of these high spots your windshield WILL crack sooner or later at the point of contact!

For what it's worth; my solution for putting in a new window is to totally remove it from the trim. (Really quite easily done) I then take a small 5" grinder with 60grit flexible disc and smooth out the entire edge. No more broken Windows. (This almost always happens with imported suppliers.)

This 2 cents brought to you DV
