This is done easily with windscreen installation tool, which one should 
be able to find in any bodywork tool shop. FROST restorers equipment 
sells the kit for £19.00 under # S125. Alternatively borrow it from the 
windscreen installation boys. These days they don't get used much, since 
new glass is usually glued.
