If my memory serves me well, there is a specific lip on the weatherstrip that fits into one side only. Then the weatherstrip fits one way to seal the vent frame. Hope this helps.

I must have explained it wrong. the retainer not the weatherstrip has a flange or extra 1/16 "edge on one side of retainer and it can be mounted either way to hinge pillar by just flipping around. there are four screws attaching retainer to hinge pillar.then weatherstrip goes on.the 1/16"edge is my concern.towards cabin or towards outer portion of vent frame? please remember this is a roadster and is different than coupe. thanks for replys

Transposed page #?
On the other hand, is your question about weatherstrip retainer on the edge of the windshield frame. I guess that is the hinge pillar, p G110 in my AIM. Reference section A-A, same page. If so, one side of the retainer is a u-shaped channel, that goes forward/ outside. Verified that on my own car.
Hope this helps, GA

In the example above, using UPC 1Asm, Sheet F16, item #3 would take you instantly to the right sheet, regardless of who "numbered" the pages.
