I am putting new felt channels in my 31 Tudor. The new felt channels for the door have "hook" clips on the top and bottom. If I hook the bottom in place I can't hook the top in place. Thought I'd ask for help before I bend something that can't be fixed.

On the advice of the retailer that I purchased mine from, I used a good automotive adhesive and glued them in, worked great, but not orignal.

Scroll to the one on window channeling. The article is about installation of felt window channels in the doors of a Victoria. However, I think the information will be of some help.
