There is a special Sikaflex specifically for fitting screens. I have the reference, which I gave Paul. I have had no problem with mine yet (after two years and 4,000 miles) but you can see the screen flex if any pressure is put on the exposed corners where it meets the doors.

The biggest issue I heard was slight cracks/chips on the edge of the screen which grow. You need to take extreme care not to break the glass on the edges when it is fitted.
