Default Trim question

I am finally reinstalling the interior trim on the b-pillar or "roll bar" after having it off for 3+ years.

Looking at it from the rear hatch, does the rear edge of the trim tuck in behind the weatherstrip or is it exposed?

Thanks

On my 86, the halo trim stays on the outside of the weatherstrip in the back. (exposed). My halo edge has a belt type bead that slips over the edge- between the weather strip and cargo area. I'm not sure if this is factory, but looks as such. I can email or post pic if needed.

Thanks, a picture would be great! That hatch weatherstrip has what you might be describing as the bead (it is how the weatherstrip actually attaches to the car) so I just want to make sure.
