Roberts C Series Windshield Rubber ?

[55 Fargo]

Hey all, anyone purchase a new 1 piece rubber windshield rubber for a C Series truck?

I bought the type, with channel cord lock 

Installer came by, brand new windshield for my 55 Fargo.

The product looks and feels okay, but was no way going to fit into windshield opening.

The installer had to stretch it several times for it, fit in opening and to install. 

Very frustrating, a simple install took a lot longer because of this.

The corners are a little wonky looking, and inside the cab there is a gap between rubber and glass for some distance.

Other than this  it is in good and secure  did not seem to leak any water from outside.

So he aware when ordering this may or may not be a problem with this particular windshield rubber.

Roberts was contacted to inform them of my experience, they of course were sorry for this, but case closed.

Just for any C series owners a heads up on this product.

I will live with it, and not be taking out window to swap in another gasket.
