The two top pieces attach to the body and make a seal between the lift gate and the body. The two side pieces are held in place by the left and right tailgate hinge brackets. The strip on the lower right goes into a groove in the bottom edge of the lift gate and is held in place with a metal strip along the entire length. When the tailgate and lift gate are closed this flap goes over the tailgate to make a seal. The piece at the lower left attaches to the bottom edge of the tail gate just below the hinge and is also held in place with a metal strip. If you are missing the metal strips I can see the confusion.
