Window channel and whiskers

Posted by jwblazek On 2022/2/2 14:49:57

I am renovating the worn out window channel and cat whisker trim on my 39 Six as I am reupholstering the door panels.

Putting the first one back together and noticed the channel is not tucking up "behind' the whiskers and as a result, is proud of where it should be by over 1/8" which prohibits installation of the window garnish trim

Anyone experience this before or can point me in the right direction? Unfortunately, this car has had some of the channel replaced in the past. The channel within the door is the same size of the stuff I bought from Steele rubber. The channel that goes around the top of the window was replaced at one time with some that is about 1/8" shorter, hence "fits". it should all be one size
