And then installed the targa top pad. This has a few cracks, but will do for now.

Pretty easy to install. This was my initial attempt, which was a bit too high. I tried a second time, and left it sticking up just a little bit.

I installed this without any adhesive, so it can come out for cleaning the channel.

More weatherstrip fun today, getting the front targa top seals installed. This is now my (not so) favorite tool.

Before installing either strip, I had to deal with the edge of the top pad, which is a bit mangled in places.

I was able to get most of the edge glued, and also the "pads" where the front latches attach.

I started on the left corner, and trimmed the metal tab to fit the shape of the indentation in the 914Rubber molding.

Here's the recess, not quite rectangular.

First attempt: almost. I started near the top of the straight section, and then worked into the upper curve. Note that the molding as-is prevents the outer edge of the trim piece to seat.
