dress cap for door moldings/seal

Post by spider2081 »

Can someone post a photo of the dress rubber cap that goes on the top of the door jam and caps the door seal. My 81 Spider never had them installed. I now have a used pair but am having trouble figuring our just how they get installed.

The rubber "stem" of the plug/cap goes down into the hole at the top of the weather seal. You'll need to loosen the rear interior panels to get the cap in place properly -- then re-tighten the rear interior panels and they will help hold the caps in place.
