In this configuration, the windshield clip portion can easily and removably be attached to the windshield, and the frame clip portion can attach the windshield to the frame of the vehicle. In some embodiments, the retaining clip is co-extruded, with the windshield clip portion being formed in the same operation as the frame clip portion.
