Default Dog leg door weather strip glued?

Is the door dog leg weather strip (on a 65 vert) next to the four pins that hold it place also glued ?

??? not with you?????

Just wanted to confirm, has been 6 years since I removed it and do not remember if it was glued. Can not find anything in assembly manual either.

Or is it my Dutch/English that you are making fun off? What is the two year old going to "SAY" between the lines?

Thx Ray

Recently on a weekend automotive show, had a rep from Steele Rubber products showing the proper way of installing weather stripping, keeping adheasive to a minimum. Probably good idea contacting them, as what they do.

Thank you for your reply. I do not need to know how to install them.
I just need to know if this particular weather strip was also glued.

Guess my initial thread was not very clear

I think Wombvette was typing fast and meant " stay between the lines in a coloring book". Your English is great.

Photo below shows an original '65 dog-leg weatherstrip; the guys at St. Louis weren't real good at keeping the glue brush "between the lines".
