70 - 72 Convertible Top Gutter Installation

Anyone have pics about how the plastic rain gutter is actually attached to the body? Mine was completely missing and I cant find anything on this in the assy nor Fisher manuals.

Does it mount at the same holes that the pinchweld moldings use? A photo showing the relationship of the pinchweld, molding and gutter would really help.

I can't get a better view since my top is down and I have the boot on, and the well liner would be in the way, but here are a couple from the trunk. Maybe you can get an idea how it mounts.

This is mine on my 68. It mounts to a steel piece of sheet metal that's below the pinch weld area
