Okay when my truck was repainted the inside of the bottom of both doors was cut out and replaced. I have two pieces metal pieces that need to be screwed back on. Does anyone have a picture of where they sit and what the weather stripping looks like?

Thanks,

Chris

No but thanks Horvath,

What I am refereing to is a small clip that runs the length of the bottom of the door that is held on by four screws. I am looking for a pic that shows how the rubber is held in place by this screwed in bracket.

I glued the weatherstrip all the way around the door and then screwed this strip over the rubber that went across the bottom of the door

tc,

That is exactly what I was refering to. Does that strip hold any rubber in place? If not what type of rubber is on the cab opposite the bottom of the door?

It is all one continuous rubber snake that is held on with 3M weatherstrip adhesive. I think the metal strip is more for trim than holding the weatherstrip in place.

Chevy Duty sells 'em ... "Lower Cab Windlace Rubber and Retainer."
