Hood to Cowl Seal Clips?

Hey Guys,

I ordered the Hood to Cowl seal for my 59 task force from Brothers Truck....no directions included.

Did a search here and found a great picture of how it is to be mounted.

Question: No thread I read mentions how the clips are attached through the rubber.....meaning, do I have to cut small slots in the rubber for the clip to go through and then mount to the truck? I didn't notice any pre-cut slots for the clips on the actual rubber piece.

Thanks
Tod

Never mind guys.....my son told me to YouTube it. Sure enough, there is a video on how to do this. Thanks anyway!

No I didn't....sorry. I looked it up on my phone. Plus, I wouldn't even know how to post the link from my phone to this laptop. Sorry.

I looked at the video again on YouTube. If you type in Precision Weatherstrip Installation, you should find it. They have a series on door seals, window and cowl.

Re: Hood to Cowl Seal Clips?

the clips are supper cheap and snap off, i recommend gluing the rubber on
those of you in the bodywork stage, i would weld the holes closed
i ended up breaking most of the clips and have mine glued down
