Door rubber fitting

[Grrrrallye 0]

Evening all,

 

I am in the process of putting the VR back together. The problem I have is that the thing has been in bits that long the door rubbers have lost there shape.

 

If some one could tell me where the rubbers meet it would be a massive help to put everything back together.

 

I'm talking about the seal that goes right around the inside of the door frame and the door closes against.

 

Thanks in advance

It joins right in the middle at the bottom. There should be a small metal piece that slots in and connects them together, but it's usually rotted out. I used a thin piece of aluminium to stop it happening again.

I've just fitted new driver side and kept passenger side on for reference, the join should be exactly level with the rear most part of the door pocket/holder (thing you keep your sunglasses in etc, whatever it's called).

my join is on the bottom in the middle, so which is the correct place for the join
