it really is a job for the professional it is a heavy screen and you only have one chance to plonk it on the bonding in exactly the right place , what if you crack it ?
Then there is the trim and clips which can be a pain to fit . The glass and frame need to completely clean and rust free and temperatures are important . National windscreens should do a good job for a very reasonable sum and will have the primers and activators and bonding agent .
