just bolt up the sides and use some 3M window silicone that they use install windshields. That should do the job as this is how mine is installed.

Absolutely correct use 3M window Weld as the glue and the tte lip will not come off.

use some low tack tape (blue painters tape) or clamps to hold it while it dries. and make sure the areas where you apply the glue is clean and dirt free. GL
