71 Pillar Weatherstrip & Rear Door--Do You Use Adhesive???

[Paul C.]

Installing all new weatherstrips. Have doors done but on the windsheild side frame and pillar weatherstrip and the coupe door rear vertical weatherstrip do you use any adhesive?? I can't tell because it is so old it is stuck to everything but looks like adhesive only on the top 1 inch and the bottom where the trough is?
Thanks Paul

Paul, I Would Use Weather Strip Adhesive All The Way Up, It Will Help Seal Out The Water And Wind Noises And Maybe Even A Little Chauking At The Cornors, Water That Makes Its Way Into The Bird Cage Will Cause Problems Later On With Rust.those Areas I Dont Believe Youll Find That For Judging Reasons There Would Be A Problem. Its More Likely The Replacement Weather Strips Would Get A Deduction.
