This was quite a big and tricky job and definitely not something you can do on your own or in a spare 5 minutes. We started off putting the side screens on the windscreen pilars. One wouldn't go in so we had to clean out the hole (mainly the powder coating I think). The we put masking tape on the sides of the scuttle and marked where the theoretical mounting ponts should be from the manual.
Then put the windscreen in place the offer up the pillars. With all the various curves and angles you just have to keep adjusting until it all fits into place as good as it can:
The pilars are fixed in place with 2 bolts through the scuttle:
One problem was the bolts are horizontal but the scuttle is at an angle. This means all the pressure is on one side (the top) and even though the washer will spread the load we decided to put and angles spacer and a second washer on to even out the load (this shot is before we put the angled spacer on):
