Another thought if you don't want to screw it up-
When my car needed a windshield (had none when it came
home), I called safelite and they did the whole thing-
new clips on rivets, the whole shebang. It was all
included in the price of the windshield replacement
($120 I think at the time), but you might be able to
call and have a dude come out and lend a hand for 1/2
the money. Just my 2 cents- Good luck!
