Windshield install question...

I got the windshield for my 56 in OK and I saw it push in pretty flush on the top and bottom but there is still some play on the corners. Is this thing supposed to lock in super tight? Everything seems to be riding in the rubber channel as it should be but when I push on the corner the glass still flexes some and the seal moves a little. Is this normal or do I need to push some more?

Re: Windshield install question...

Push harder, its a b*** but the corners need to drop in and seal or it will just pop backout. When I have had mine replaced I am amazed at the beating they take.
