Default Window Frame to Door Seal Install

I just received the plastic caps that are designed to help with a wind leak that is coming from the front left corner of the my door. Problem I'm having is that it didn't come with any instructions. Does anyone happen to have photos of these clips installed?

Here's a link to the parts:

I think this fits an 89-98. If so, You are in the wrong forum. What year vehicle is yours. we're good, but our crystal ***** are fuzzy.

What P/N did you order? Pelican may have sent you the wrong part. Give me a part number and I'll see what I can find. I don't recall on of these on SC or Carrera's.

I checked all my reference material from 1974-89 and did not find 911-531-711-02--01C anywhere in any of those years. Did you remove the old one? Installation is the reverse. How do you know you need one? I'd call Pelican and see what they say. Ask if they have a parts schematic showing where it is located.

Well let us know if it cuts down on the wind noise.
I removed my entire front quarter window and replaced the black sticky rope that seals it to the body.
I got a 2 ft piece from a glass shop fora coffee

The old stuff was dried out and leaking.
I think this is where you start for any wind noise. Seal this area and push this window against front door seal.

I would say it reduced the noise by about 25%. What I did discover was the biggest culprit for noise was the flag mirror. If I fold the mirror in close to the body the whistling noise goes away. Now I'm considering 935 mirrors.
