Does the rib on the steel strip that holds the lower door seal in place go up or down?

Good question. I think flange down. It holds the weatherstrip down to the door flange as well as on the vertical portion. If you have the seal, you should be able to tell which way it goes.

Goes down the v fits on the door seal pushing it tite to the door. That’s the way I put mine.
