Default Detachable windshield problems

Help a man make his wife happy! Bought a detachable windshield for my wife's sportster and damned if I can figure out how to install the thing!

The bike is a 2011 Nightster and I cannot find any instructions for the windshield anywhere.

All help appreciated!
