[Healeys] Window nylon guides for BJ8

Wes,
I just did these on my 63 BJ7.  There are small rectangular notches in the
window glass frame that the three nylon pieces fit into.  There is a
corresponding notch in the nylon piece that fits into these rectangular cut
outs in the window frame.  They are held into the frame by the window glass.
As far as the weather-striping goes, the rubber stuff I got from Moss was
too thick and did not work.  I used a 700cc bicycle lightweight inner tube
and cut it to fit.  It was slightly thinner than the Moss rubber and worked
great.

Hello Folks,

      Another question!
    You'll get sick of me soon.

I have been told by a parts vendor that there a 3 nylon pieces that are
about
3/4" long that guide the window glass in the track. She said they fit in
slots
in the tracks 2 in the front track and one in the rear. I have examined both
tracks and can't find them. I have the pieces I just can't figure out how to
hold them in. Any clues are appreciated.
