The rubber end caps are sided, L and R and I don’t know about others but yes I cut the membrane and fit them on first, I purchase Bristleflex only as it is the best fitting door seal material, and I glue these using 3M Super Weatherstrip Adhesive #08008. As far as the metal end caps are concerned, see the photo, I cut the rubber bulb that would be underneath the cap as it makes it easier to squeeze in place. Bear in mind that where the Bristleflex made a 90 degree turn, there should be a very small screw that helps keeping it in place.
All that kind of detailed information will soon be available in a new book by Roger Moment available through the AHCUSA.

Subject: [Healeys] Door seal end caps

Hi :

I am replacing my door seal on my BJ8, and ordered the rubber end caps,
and the metal end caps, as indicated in the Moss catalog.  I have never
been able to figure out how those rubber caps are supposed to fit on the
end of the door seal material, or how they are supposed to be held in
place.  They just don't seem to have the same profile as the end of the
door seal material.  I also have never used the metal end caps, so I
don't know exactly how they are supposed to fit either.  Can someone
send me some pictures or a description that might help me?

Thanks in advance.  I know you guys and gals are a wealth of information.
