what holds the "glass run channel" into place on the door frame?

this is the "7" shaped part in the upper left inside the dashed box (coincidentally labled "7") of this page:

glass run channel

in addition to it's natural tight fit in the vertical channel, originally there were some small sheet metal clips that stab into the back of it and wedge into it's track at the top of the door, not available repro that I've seen, you need to salvage them from your old felt run - also need to cut it to a very tight fit for length so it's wedged between the bottom end and the division post

some weatherstrip glue should work, doesn't take much to hold them snug if they're not cut too short, the window wedges them in pretty well .... the clips are just a rectangular piece of light metal with a pointy triangle punched loose in the middle to stab into the felt

Thanks Bill - i will cut them to length carefully and probably add a dab of weatherstrip adhesive as you suggest
