70 SE rear window insert/plug questions

[todd440]

Hello folks.
Is there supposed to be sealer upon installing the rear window plug/insert on a SE car, between the plug and body? I'm referring to the fiberglass insert for the small back window. I see no prior sealer on mine before cleaning it up to re-install. There is sealer to hold in the glass of course, but nothing around the edge.
Also, is there supposed to be a thin layer of felt or jute material over the plug to bring it up level with the body, to blend it in flush when the vinyl top is on? I find it tacky when I see them and the top is sunk in all the way around window insert.

Challenger SE window plug question

What did the factory use to cover the seam and screw areas so they don't show under the vinyltop? Does anyone have pictures of this?It looks like my window plug had duct tape over the screw holes, did someone do this afterwards? Vinyltop was long gone, so I don't know what was under it..?

I had to put a seal between the plug & body to bring it flush & then had to add a foam filler over the edge where the screw holes were to make it look right .

Headliner Question

For you'll with a S/E Vinyl top. What did you use to lay over the window plug? Before install. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be 1/8" piece of foam. What did you use? Thanks

I have always loved the smaller S.E. window look. However, my car is not an S.E. I thought about adding it at one time but never did.
