Default Tudor sedan rear window frame supports?

I have looked at a thousand photos of the rear window panels and can't see how any of them tie in to the body except for the rivets to the bottom support. Mine does not have the bottom support that ties in to the body. I have fabricated a piece of 18 gauge angle to rivet it to but can't figure out if the angle is in toward the body or out toward the center of the car. Any photos would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks Kevin. The pics make it pretty clear. It looks as though the lower molding that holds the upholstery panel in is part of that piece. Is that correct or is it a separate piece? When I purchased the car it had now interior in it. It is like solving a big puzzle but more fun when you finally figure it out.

As always, thanks.

Also remember that the vertical supports have the window stops on the insides.
