Default Anybody know where these top seals mount?



Thanks to all who have posted about top replacement! These rubber seals fell off when I removed my rain gutter and I don't see any glue residue from where they were mounted. They were at the outer front edges of the body trim molding and seem like they would stick back to that metal molding in front of the end of the larger rubber seal that wraps around the back. Anyone have a picture of how theirs are mounted? Does the small lip face inboard or outboard?

They are part of the hard large u shaped trim that goes around the soft top and they hold the rail rail tight, they mount on the underside of that out of view. They fall off with age, very common. As long as your rail rail is secured to the sides with the 2 factory clips per side you shouldn't have to worry about any rain getting behind your rain rail

Thank you, sir!. I just re-glued them in place with weatherstrip cement. Fits perfectly between the end of the metal carrier of the bigger weatherstrip that wraps around the rear and the foam mucket on the back side of the door jamb. I hope it will hold up better than the tape they were originally attached with! Now on with installing my new Robbins top. Thank you again.
