How to configure VPLS L2VPN Pseudo Wire with MPLS

How to configure VPLS L2VPN Pseudo Wire with MPLS

Hello, I'm needing some help setting up a layer 2 vpn between two X460-24t across a wan. I have all the necessary licensing and feature packs installed. The wan used static routing and is 3 hops away, also the routers in between do not participate in the MPLS. I've started setting up the MPLS and VPLS here's where I'm at...What am I doing wrong?
