Call your insurance company. Get a free box of steaks! Tell them you were driving and rock hit your windshield.

I was about to do the same thing with my GSR and I was going to need about $30-$40 worth of the special glue they use for the windshield to glue it and avoid leaks and all; plus that thing brakes SOOOO EASY. You can get a company to install it for you anywhere from $60 to $100. I got mine for $60 with SAFELITE. Even paying $100 is a lot better than paying $40 doing all the work yourself and find out a couple of days later your windshield is leaking or brake it while installing it. Spend a couple of extra dollars and avoid the aggrivation. If you still want to do it yourself, go to a body shop supplier and ask for the glue to install a w/shield. GOOD LUCK
