Help

Ok so I have a question about my on going project. I have recently started coverting my car from a landau top to a hardtop for a number of reasons. To fix the rust, to fix the leak, and because the landau was in bad shape and looked like crap. I understand what has to be done to the quarter windows to get them back in and done. The part that confuses me is the rear window. I have no idea how to get the window trim to fit. I have never had experience with taking on or off trim on these cars so I am kinda stuck. I have the trunk filler panel and the trim w/ the rubberish stuff that slids in it, but I can't figure out how to put the trim on. If anyone can help me with this I would appreciate it greatly. Please let me know if there is anything I need to get to complete this too! Thanks.

-Chad

The trim is held on by the same type of clips as the windshield. You'll have to remove the glass so you can install some special button head rivets that the plastic clips slide onto. Here's a thread explaining how's it done.Reveal Winshield Moulding Clip Studs
