I have a 185 sport bowrider and the windshield keeps rising up out of the frame where the curve is on both sides. I took the windshield apart and it went back together right once before but it has risen up again. You can put your fingers between the glass and the frame now in the corner where the glass bends around. Anyone have any suggestions?
 
What year is your 185? Are the screws that hold both ends of the frame together good and tight? When you put the glass back in the gasket and frame is it going all the way in? Sometimes a rubber mallet helps to get the frame seated all the way down on the glass. Other than that, the frame may be bowed up on the top and the only fix for that is to physically bend it. You may want to call Taylor Made (the company who made the windshield) and see if they have any other suggestions.
 
Its an 04. Yeah it went all the way back in. The rubber stayed put in the frame only the glass came up. I only did the passenger side. The driver side was ok then but now they have both come up. idk
