Vent window rubber? 56

Sorry I've been away for a while but I'm ready to restart on my truck. I am trying to install the rubber that the vent window shuts against ( shaped like a tall "C" . Is this to be glued into place or is it a snap in fit? Any advice on putting it in? Thanks

It's a little fuzzy and I don't have my Shop Manual handy, but I believe it is just snapped in. I have had it apart a couple of times and never glued it.

I've got to agree with Randy Jack, I have done mine with rubber purchased from Dennis Carpenter and it just fits with pressure. I have to say that there is a gap on mine between the door and the rubber along the bottom of the window which is frustrating but after taking it apart three times without making a difference I gave up and left the gap. For now I don't take it out in the rain!
