How to install window Channels

[verrece]

I am restoring a 1934 fordor and I bought a window channel kit for rear doors .
The kit does not came with any instruction.
Do anyone have this instructions or have any good tips on installing the rear window channel kit?
It came with 5 parts by each door and I do not have any idea where goes each part.
Here you can see a photo of two doors kit
Thanks for your help

It's been a year since I installed them, but this is what I recall....

The long u shaped piece goes from the back lower corner up and around to the front upper corner and is attached to the door frame using the enclosed screws in the package.
The longer of the three pairs goes at the front of the door frame and also attaches with the enclosed screws. The middle pair with the metal end fits at the front of the door, but below the window opening, there is a metal tab in the door that folds over the channel (the window slides in this channel as it descends down). The last pair fits inside the door on the back, there are tabs there as well. The small rectangular rubber pieces fit in cut outs in the frame. These are bumpers so that the window stays steady as it is rolled down. The pair that are the same width as the window, set in the mount mechanism.

Good luck.

Every kit I purchased had a diagram showing where all the parts went. Maybe if you call the place you got the kit from they could send you one. The first kit I purchased was from Drake's for a 34. It cost twice as much and fell apart after a few months. This time I paid 1/2 the price for my 35 and got one form Mac's made by Vintique Inc. The quality is so much better than Drake's and this kit had made in america sticker on it.

Dears all.
Thanks for yours comments. But it does not interest nothing to me about the 3M the cement.
I put this thread asking for how to install rear Window Channels kit in my car. Please, does anybody could give me more instructions or some drawing about that?

Whats your problem Verrece? Savy has given you the answer you need. The 3M question arose out of the thread and is relevant. Because you start a thread you don't have claim to its ownership.

Thanks for your post Savvy. I just purchased a window channel kit for my 30 Pickup and no instructions were included. Your explanation will help.
