Anyone have any pictures of roof rail trim and weatherstriping for 70 challenger. I'm getting ready to insatll and after almost 2 years I can't remember how to install. I took pictures when tearing down the car, but I didn't take any pics of roof rail trim and weatherstrip. Any pictures or somewhere on line that might have installation details would be great.
Thanks, Gabe

I was in the same spot. I have my RT partially disasembled. I will try to take some pics soon and post them for you. May take a day or so. If anyone can help sooner?

You install the drip rail molding piece first, put in the screws. Install the weatherstrip trim pieces, screw them in place. Then the weather strip. Put a screw in the front hole of the weather strip and work your way back. Push the bottom in place then the top... not much to it really.

Thanks to both of you. Pictures would still be nice. Silver70, I also have a roll of some foam or some type of sealer that also goes on at the roof rail. Does this go on the back side of the drip rail molding before screwing in?
Thanks Again Can always count on help from everyone on this forum.

Does anybody make those screws for the stainless pieces? The drip rails were already out of my challenger when I bought it and the screws are missing. I bought new screws for the weatherstrip channel. Also, is there a piece of "foam" of some type that goes between the stainless and the body itself?

I used "Some yahoo"'s roofrail trough sealing kit on my car, fit perfectly and duplicated the original I removed from it perfectly. I highly recommend his stuff (71TA). jess
Yeah, it's hopped up to over 160...

AMK Products might sell those screws. I need them also and I thought I saw them, I just need to know what size they are to compare what AMK has.
If anyone knows for sure where to get these screws, I'd like to know also.
Thanks
