With some difficulty, we fit the drain channel under the front edge of the rear shroud. It certainly would have been easier to do before installing the shroud and painting the car. The chrome trim around the rear of the passenger compartment also is now in place. Fortunately, both pieces are in nice condition without corrosion, etc.
The drain channel has five downward facing spouts to fasten drain hoses to, and the hoses are in good shape, so that part seems straightforward. But I am not sure how to fasten or finish fitting the front ends of the drain channel (the box like sections). They are in place there just behind the door area, but they are not fastened to anything other than the rest of the drain channel, which is riveted to the shroud. The box sections can move or at least flex, which doesn't seem quite right.
In the same area, regarding the small chrome trim waist pieces that fasten to the body behind the doors - what do they fasten to? The chrome pieces have two screw holes - one on top and on in the front. The top screw hole lines up with a hole in the body, just beside the chrome strip that goes around the top of the cockpit. But there is nothing to run that front screw into. It can reach the box section of the drain channel, but there is no hole in the drain channel for that.
Would anyone have any detailed pictures of that area, the front area of the drain channel and trim piece fastening?
