Default Roadster windshield weatherstrip

Getting ready to install the windshield on my 31 Standard Roadster project. Is the weatherstrip cut at a 45 degree angle at the corners so that the 2 pieces meet? If so should I allow a little extra for shrinkage? Also, is a short piece installed vertically above the top windshield pivot? Pictures would be great if available. Any other useful tips would be appreciated. I can't find anything in the Judging Standards.

Thanks Bob. Looks like it's angled at the corners. Not quite a 45 degree cut but I guess it wouldn't matter as long as the bottom and side pieces match up. Is there a short piece above the top pivot?
