Actually, my involvement with the Cee Baileys windscreen and wingtip lenses is far more than just replacing it, although that was the start of months of R&D with Cee Baileys/Desser.
Maybe I’ll respond in more detail in the morning of the West coast of the US.

Ask Pascal...IIRC he had to replace his Vans windshield. Having done Vans winshield myself, it is nothing to write home about, having replaced a fair number of windows//windshields on certified aircraft.

I completely agree. The quality I also better. I have their lens and windscreen and in both cases it clearer and “feels” more solid. With the lenses and the windscreen they come slightly larger to allow for final trim. It minimal work compared to cutting lenses in half and trimming and way less than the windscreen. In general, I highly recommend the tires, tubes, (basically the RV-10 kit) from Desser and the windows and lenses from Cee baileys, all the same site by the way and skipping the parts sent by Vans in kits.
Equal or less in price than Vans and better quality- also shipping for everything except the windscreen is usually free.
There is a dedicated site for Vans-http://www.vansaircrafttires.com/categories/RV%252d10/

Sounds like you either did not have lens correctly oriented when you trimmed, or you haven't trimmed enough.
You can get higher quality, already mostly trimmed lens from Cee Bailey division of Desser Tire. They sell pre-trimmed replacement windows and windshield as well.

Landing light lens installation kit needs to be modified so the lens fits tight. The edge of the lens tends to protrude and not fit flush on the wing rib side. The outside near the tip seam fits very well. It looks like the only we to make a nice smooth blend from the fiberglass to the lens is to build up the fiberglass. Has anyone had the same issue? Any recommendations on how best to fix the issue?
