[Healeys] BJ7-BJ8 Windshield assembly

[Elton S]

The rectangular cross section pieces (about 5/16"x 1/8" thick) are packing
pieces that go on each side channel of the windshield so as to prevent the
glass from being positioned too far to any one side. Their ends are just
short of the corner brackets.
