Question, "P" seal between door window & windshield frame

My question is about how to route the "P" seal on the door opening down below the windshield frame.  The seal goes below the windshiled frame about 8 or 10 inches and I as I recall it does not go straight down.  I saw a picture on here some time ago but I can not find it back.  Can anyone help me with this?

Hi Dale,
The P seal starts at the top of the winshield frame under the chrome cap, goes down passed where the windscreen meets the dash pad, at this point keep on going down the same groove as the door, so the door somewhat keeps sealed to the P seal until there isn't anymore P seal left. The P seal should end up vertical in the groove. Look at your door in the hinge area, you will see how the door has a 45 degree area. The P seal should follow that same area in the door jam.

I hope you can understand my verbage!

I could probably take a photo of mine in the morning if needed? My car is in our trailer (Wichita Falls, Tx) for the night!

Not like this



Moss (UK) have two different thicknesses of P seal now, I presume these would also be available over there.
