OP BleuBelle Ossessionato 2010 GTS 300 Super "Yukihime" 2013 BV350 "Silvar"" Joined: UTC Posts: 2494 Location: South SF Bay Area	UTC quote Okay I know I saw someone who had posted a thread for a windscreen install which showed pics of using a hammer to set something into the headset. I have looked under the wiki and could not find a wiki for windscreen install (just the printed translated instructions). I don't think I hallucinated this thread with pics. I searched under windscreen too. Please prove me right (or wrong)

There was also this thread Faco Mid-Size Windscreen... Check which mentions using a hammer, but dosn't actually have a picture.

I am having trouble installing the FACO mid on an '06 GT. Here is what I did. I pushed the pins into the holes. Obviously they didn't go in. So I tapped it with a hammer like the directions stated. Well, they went in but the tabs on the compression piece bent in and it didn't take. So I can pull them right out. How did you all get them in without bending the tabs?

Thanks!

In that case, is there anyone who posted pics of a windscreen install on a GTS or an LX (which would probably be very similar)?
