71 B-body rear 1/4 glass help

[rrTor-Red]

What goes in the aft, behind the 1/4 glass to cover/seal it off from the elements? If anyone can picture having the rear window rolled down, looking back towards the rear, what is in there to ensure water and the elements keep it dry? Does anyone have pictures or can take a few?Hope anyone reads this understands what I'm saying. Getting my rear windows to be installed but can't remember what is behind there.

Thanks!!

its the outer rear window seal
it clips into the inside of the curve right on the quarter.
if you look on your car, you will see the rectangular slots for them
on the inside
top cat makes them
but you can only get them in their top cat whiskers kit
and not alone.

before you run off
and buy a 125 dollar topcat whisker kit
be warned there are 2 different versions of that kit for a 71 rr
one is for early cars and one is for later cars.
the only difference in kits is
that exact seal is different between the 2
the early one is longer then the other
i think i got the wrong one for my car
so more money flushed..LOL

Thanks flypaper for the info. My car is a early build date, Oct. '70.

Also before you buy the whisker kit take note the seal that goes on the sail panel

i have the plastic sail panel and need to rig the whisker
it doesnt come with clips (thats required on the plastic sail panels)

i beleive there was fabric sail panels in this case you'd be fine

im running into that trouble right now

not sure if there are multiple vendors for the whisker, if so ask about the sail panel whisker if yours is like mine

Looked for top cat and either I'm missing something, don't see them.

 

[rrTor-Red]

I think I found it, but no picture

Flypaper-were those the ones you said was the wrong one's for your car?

 

[flypaper]

they won't fit the runner i'm working on right now
i haven't checked the other runner i have and also against the AMD quarter
i have to replace.
so i can't condemn it yet.
you can find those kits on ebay
i got mine at Carlisle out of the back of a truck
i should of just bought both versions when i was there
figuring with 2 cars i would use it up one way or another.

I need to see what the kit I have, what all is in it. I bought a set YEARS ago so I'm not sure but I remember the curved one's you pictured by removing it. Again, my car is an early production date

 

[rrTor-Red]

Where does these little brackets go? I'm having a brain fart on them. I want to say in the rear 1/4 glass. Also, found the felts (Actually, my friend did since I'm not at home)
