tiled (a whole number of tiles on the window sill left me with a gap
of less than 1cm between the tiles and window frame) and I am ready
to put the quadrant into place.
But how? I can't tell from the other windows if the only thing
holding the quadrant in place is the sealant, or if there is
something else doing the actual bonding.

Also, though the qaudrant will cover the gap with plenty to spare
should I still fill the gap with something first?

Thanks in advance from a hopeless amateur.

A form of superglue holds the quadrant to the frame and the sealant just
finishes it off.

When they did mine trims were held in place just with the sealant
