need help installing Rick's windscreen
I've bought the windscreen from Rick's and was all set to get it installed. But I've got to admit those instructions are a bit beyond my skills. I'm a chick, so I've got no gearhead ego on the line here 
. Is there someone y'all can recommend to install the windscreen in the LA area?

Come on by and I'll set you up, but this is the other LA.
The install is actually quite simple. The instuctions just make if look harder than it really is. The list of recommended tools is right on. Technically speaking, if have ever used a credit card to open a door or can change the little makeup tins in a compact than you can do this.
Go forth and conquer!!!!

sorry, occasionally my a$$hole gets the better of me. If you are in a bind and can't find someone in the other L.A. PM for a mailing addresss and I will do the mod for you and reship. only costs would be shipping to and fro.

I have done this particular install myself a long time ago (just followed directions), but I didn't do it so well -- i.e. I mangled/scratched the original OEM windscreen in the process. So I'd say it's best to find someone who knows how to do it without screwing up the original windscreen. If nothing else, it will take you a few hours to do it right since I think I recall it taking some time to separate the original windscreen from its hinge.
Good luck!

Thanks, guys! I appreciate the offers of help and words of encouragement.
Duc -- I would love to take you up on your offer, if there's a time that's good for you. I'll PM you.
GenghisKwong, thanks as well. I didn't think you were an a$$hole at all. Like I said, there's no ego on the line. I used to do construction, so I know I'm handy -- just don't want to hurt my S.
