roadster windshield

anyone know of an on-line video of how to replace the glass on a1929 roadster windshield. my car did not have a windshield on it when I bought it, and I have purchased a replacement from Snyders. They also show glass bedding tape in 1/32 thickness for the roadster. I guess my main question would be how to get the glass down to the bottom of the windshield frame and the 2 sides of the frame with the bedding on the glass, or how to get the glass in the frame after the bedding is installed in the frame? does it fit loose enough to get the glass in with the bedding installed, and then apply light oil to swell the bedding tape? any help would be appreciated. Thank You, Jim, Palmer, Ak
 
Here are some pictures on how it installed the glass in my 29 phaeton's frame.
