Default Spring loaded clips on Nostalgia windshield
Just installed nostalgia windshield. There are spring loaded clips on both side that are supposed to lock on the top posts. My question is: do they hook on top of the post or underneath?

Thanks,
The instructions didn't include anything regarding the clips.

Did you go with the standard height or low profile version? I'm interested in the same windshield but not sure which one. I'm only 5'8", so I'm leaning toward the low profile version so I can see over it. Any comments by anyone out there with experience? Thanks.
