Here is that windshield frame e-mail from ages ago. I do believe that
those wedges were only the later Series.

I saved it. Here it is:

"Windshield installation: I have run into this problem both on windshield
 installation and soft top installation. I solved the problem by
 manufacturing some special flange nuts from good steel material. The 5/16
 rods were threaded deeper to allow the nuts to be tightened way down next t
o
 the windshield frame. The flange nuts had 3/8 hex ends to allow adjustment
 thru the tubes in the body. The washer ends were large enough to stop at
 the tops of the tubes, with the hex ends inside the tubes. By adjusting
 these stops using a deep 7/16 socket, the maximum angle of the windshield
 can be controlled and adjusted. The regular washers and nuts were used on
 the bottom to tighten the assembly to the body.
