Have 1950 Chev PU. Trying to complete missing stuff on doors. I have the "on door" weatherstrip ready to put on, but there's a lower door retainer required on the bottom of each door on interior side of doors. It is a narrow metal piece that is attacheh with metal screws to door panel and it is shaped to a weird config. The rubber weatherstripping carries continuously around the door and across the bottom of door and it is glued in place. Does anybody know what that retainer is for and how it interacts with weatherstripping? Where does it sit in relation to weatherstripping? I like the trim piece as it adds a finished look, but don't see it's purpose and how it mates to seal.
BTW, I don't see screw holes at the bottom of my door. Was this strip even used on 1950 year trucks?
I also have a nasty rattle only with window down inside door somewhere as I accelerate faster. What are the anti rattle window seals and where do they go in door? Will that typically resolve issue? Are these seals called something else as I can't find them in any parts supplier as anti-rattle seals.
