Door weatherstrip

Any advice on installing door weatherstrip? I got a good deal on new ones from Tamraz's on fleebay if anyone else is looking.

There should be small plastic pushins like christmas trees or hooks that go in the holes in the door frame.  At least mine were.   If you need the inner window whiskers.......I have a set............

the clips hook in at one end & just press into place , you can glue the strips onto the door with 3m weatherstrip cement but the factory did not do this have just removed my original set , it is far easier to start at the front of the dorr & work your way back if the clips are installed facing the right way

I seem to remember using pliers or needle nose pliers to help snap them in.
