Can anyone tell me how the front and rear windscreen trims are fitted to the rubber? on a 1960 series 3, do they use clips or are they just tucked underneath the rubber somehow?

I bought them a few years ago from Mike Langley the spares officer of SROC.

Thanks for that. It looks like i must have the wrong windscreen rubbers fitted then! i have only just recently bought my car and the previous owner has fitted new front and rear rubbers, but there are no grooves in them. Do you know were i can get the correct rubbers from?

A specialist tool is used to guide the trim into a slotted groove in the screen rubber. Not to be attempted by the inexperienced!
