The welting needs to go over and fill in that gap.

It actually clamps on the metal. Is it the same on the other side?

No it kinda sticks out on the other side so I left it alone until I could figure out how it properly attaches

not really seeing how that welting would clamp in place .there is no channel on it to fit into the metal unless something is missing .i may be able to glue it in place with 3m adhesive

Nope......the welting in the pic is in the original/factory/correct position. Some side panels fit down a bit tighter where the horizontally oriented gap appears BUT the welting is correctly located/positioned AS IS.
