Hi guys . Just recently had the trunk lid of my fifty shoebox upholstered and the weather stripping was damaged so I have to replace it. I bought the correct rubber but I need a pic of which way it goes on as I cannot remember . Which way the rubber glues to the trunk. Any pics would be great... Thanks

i have glued mine with 3 m black weather strip sealant the flat side goes to the lid the seam always goes to the bottom and also the bottom piece is tight to the flange on the lid wish i could send a pic but im not yet that far along with this tech.

Flat side to the lid with th v out. Tape it on first and then work your way around with the glue.
