I don't have a pic on me, but the wire from the antenna is a flat braided with that is just folded against the glass when the seal is installed. there is no cutting of holes placed in the seal. the wire comes up between the glass and seal then wraps down in contact with the gasket on the inside and passes through a hole in the dash structure to get to the antenna amp mounted in the front trunk area.

I put an antenna windshield in my 84 during some repair after hitting a dear. since the fender and windshield both needed to be replaced I figured why drill a hole in a brand new fender when I needed a new windshield anyway.

I did have to drill a small hole in the dash to pass the wire through to the trunk and needed an antenna amp to connect the windshield to the stereo, but conveniently I had one of those in a drawer from a previous car I parted out.
