deluxe windshield gasket salvage

has anyone tried to reinstall an original deluxe windshield chrome into an
aftermarket deluxe gasket? i salvaged the piece off my 69 when i replaced the old glass and am eager to re-use, if there are no fit issues.

I also have a 69 Deluxe and have to pull the windscreen. The trim looks good. Can I re-use it? Is it more difficult to get this rubber in as aposed to the plain rubber windshield seal?

yes you an reuse it, and no it isnt any more difficult to fit in. just be sure the chrome is in the rubber BEFORE you attempt to install the glass

FOR 35 BUcks id change it out with a new one, it may tear when removing and unless it is fairly new , i think it will leak.

I've used OG chrome in WW seals with no problems.
