That's one horrible job out of the way. I had the Autoglass 'Classic' specialist do my rear one. After 3 hours they gave up and I had to do it myself with the wife leaning on it!

Looks good :) You mentioned is was pretty easy to get the screen in so where are your screen rubbers from and did you use new trims?

I've got to replace my front screen after cracking it at the weekend!
