Chuck,

I ran into almost the same situation on my Shell Valley. The previous owner needed to replace the windshield and purchased a complete frame with glass, but kept the original side posts. The original side posts do not align with the windshield frame at the top by about 1/8".

Talking to the Shell Valley, I was told that there was a design change in the windshield a few years ago, so I purchased new side posts which look to be correct, but have not had a chance to install them. Purchasing new posts might be a fall back option if the rubber mallet method does not work. I might have a chance to install the new posts in the next week and can give you an update at that time.

John
