Team.
Not sure if my words painted the picture so I have posted the query on the
Forum too with some shots to illustrate.

Team.
Some advice please. I have built my (BN4) windscreen and assembled the
side pillars to it.  Next step is to insert the rubber moulding into
the bottom channel before then dropping the whole assembly into the
locating holes between wings and shroud.
My question regards the surplus length of the rubber moulding at each
end.  If I trim the excess at each end of the chrome channel then
there will be a small gap between the pillar and the rubber seal for
water to get through. If I leave the ends protruding then I guess they
would have to be dropped down the same holes that the 'legs' go
through. That will interfere with the rubber foot pads that sit on top
of the wing/shroud, and I'm not sure there is enough room inboard of
the legs to allow that.

Am I missing a trick?

Thanks....................
