Alex, what was it??? I'll pay a royalty
I need to transfer the metal part on the lower edge of my fastback window with the same part from a coupe window. Any suggestions what kind of glue I should use? Type of glue is what I need, rather than a brand name, since I live in an Eastwood-challenged country.
Many thanks,
Simon
P.S.: Also, how would you recommend treating the metal part itself? Anti-rust primer? Maybe a coat of clear urethane?

Modern windshields are bonded and the modern adhesives are incredibly strong, I'd use that. Self etching primer would work great for that, after a thourough cleaning.
