Errr....you have a FLU, correct? I believe you simply put in on on TOP of the light guide. I was considering getting one myself, actually...please post an update when you get it installed?

I have a glass screen installed for 6 months with absolutely no problems.

Is this the one from MashMods.com cause its really thick and wont fit under the gold part, unless forced with xtreme pressure

gold part?
You're just supposed to take of the gray frame remove the plastic screen and place it there arnt you? then you replace the gray part.

I think someone said it will end up a bit raised since the glass is thicker.

Yeah but when i try put the new glass one in, it doesnt want to go in, unless forced. anyone installed glass screen from there?

I have installed a glass screen that I cut myself. It was pretty thin though, about the thickness of the plastic one that was there. I know that I just put the glass piece into the recessed area on the grey plastic piece and then put a piece of tape on the front (so that it wouldn't move around and stayed lined up in the groove) then inserted the plasic frame with the glass in it into the unit. Then I removed the tape on the front. That seems to work good.

I had the exact same problem.

The glass was about 1/16 inch to wide.

I e-mailed mashmods and they looked through the glass they had cut and found a few that were to big.

They wound up just sending me a new one within a few days.

So just e-mail them and let them know the problem and they'll fix it.

Ic, so its not suppose to be forced under? I'll email them this instance. thx, anymore replies from mashmods glass screen is welcome. heh

Yes it is a little thicker , but that's normal.

And it should be a good fit but not so tight where you can't put it in with normal pressure.

Yeah but when i try to put it on, it raises to gold part, is that too suppose to happen.

O and on a side note, was this site down on the march 19, yesterday basically or just me

Yes it raises the gold part a little more than the regular plastic does.
