Default 1989 Inner Window Seals

Alright fellas, I've been looking and searching everything, other sites, youtube, etc, and I can't find anything on the installation of the Inner Window Seals, Mine are in really poor shape so I thought while I was at it, changing out the door speakers, I would address these, the outers I get, remove a portion of the weatherstripping, carefully drill the rivets, and pull them off, install the new ones and re-rivet. The inners seem to be stapled to the door panel, and honestly they are in worse shape than the outers!

So what I'm asking is how are these installed, of course I still need to procure them, but that isnt a problem, but how are they installed???

Thanks.

D.

Maybe this will help:

If my memory is correct (I did this about 15 years ago) the vendors (Zip, Corvette Central, Mid America, etc) include the install instructions.

This video might be of assistance also. A bit long, but the door sweeps are about the 9 minute mark.
