To plumb a VIGO VG06042A glass panel on an unplumb wall:

1. Ensure sufficient structural support exists behind the shower wall. If not, reinforce it with wooden studs before installation.
2. Dry fit the panel and mark lines on the floor and wall to plan alignment, since the fixed panel does not sit in line with the door panel.
3. Level the front fixed panel in the desired configuration.
4. Mark mounting holes on the wall after leveling.
5. Remove the panel, drill holes, and insert plastic anchors.
6. Reinstall the panel and secure it with screws.

Proper alignment and reinforcement are critical due to the glass panel's fixed shape.
