Default '76 Windshield Trim Problems

Anybody got a close up pic of the top windshield molding installed on a '76 (or other coupe)? I don't know what is wrong with mine either wrong trim or missing something. When I install the trim it has about 1/2"-3/4" gap between the trim and windshield-is this right? If anyone has closeups they can send them to shinklin at ***.net.

Thanks,
ltlevil

Dean,
I sent mail back thanks for the pics. It appears there is a rubber "seal" that goes between the metal trim and glass. I don't have that so it appears that is my problem. Anyone know what the proper term is for this so I can try and find one?
