HELP! Second Time Around Interior Question

[packrat6]

Interior.....'30 Fordor. There is a thin wood strip (about 2 inches wide and 1/4 inch thick) that runs top to bottom of the center post between the front and back doors. The fabric covered trim panel attaches to this wood strip. Does anyone know.....is this wood strip mounted under the windlace molding or does the windlace go on first and then the wood strip over it and then the trim panel?

If I remember right, the wood gets screwed down to the header board and the sun rails. Then the metal gets talked over it. Then I think it is the cardboard piece then windlace. Mines has popped out and I have to push the windlace to the front and back to reseat the cardboard piece. Not near my car so I can take a pic.

The Center Door Posts on my Briggs 30 TS are filled with wood. no strips. The Wind Lace is nailed on to the wood and the cardboard covered panels are nailed on afterwards.

I remembered that I had taken a bunch of pictures when I first started working on the car. Was able to find one showing the center post. It was originally put in with the windlace in first, then the wooden strip which was covered in the trim fabric. No cardboard panel. Just the covered wood strip.
