As indicated on the documents, the drawing illustrating the rear seal for the
hardtop to shroud is specifically for the BN6,7 only. Also, the photos are of
BN6,7 hardtops. The BN4, BT7 hardtop seals are similar but not identical.

Thanks to Gary Hodson, I have posted two PDF's on hardtops for the BN6 and
N7 on the Body section of the Technical page. One is several photos and a
rawing of how the seal around the frame is set up and the second is an
xploded view of the hardtop taken from the Parts Manual.

Many thanks for the Help folks!
Maybe I am too dumb, but things are still not clear, even after checking all
our pics around the sealings.
Ok, here how I see the things. We have 3 parts of the hardtop:
 rear part, which sits on the cockpit moulding
 front part, which sits on the windscreen frame
 the two side parts above and around the windows
What kind of rubbers and what sequence to use there. Unfortunatly the pics I
ave looked at today are not using the same pattern. My "original" item has
ubers which I dont see on the pics.
Soo here is my version soo far:
 rear part. the two thick pads go to the are there the retaining stick is
ocated (corner). Plain rubber glued on the alloy between the two pads. The
pec. profile (27H9597) is glued on the top of the plain rubber between the
ads. U profile finisher goes on the inner edge of the alloy.
 front part: 27H9597 (?) glued on the alloy,  U profile finisher on the
nner edge. Two small thin plain rubber stripes glued on each corner to
rotect pillars from scratching.
 Side part: same as front.
Or? Do I got it wrong?
Gergo
 side part: same as front.
