Windlace End Caps, Where do they go?

I purchased Windlace end caps and haven't a clue where they go, course I probably shouldn't have bought them in the first place. I thought they went somewhere near the windlace strip but they don't fit anywhere near it. I think they may fit on the door but not sure. Anyone know where they go? This is for a 67 Cutlass/442. Thanks.

Maybe the top of the rear side panel (rear "door" panel you could say but there aren't any rear doors n your car).

When you open your door there's a strip of rounded vinyl at the leading edge of the interior rear seat side panel...vertically oriented and it sort of fills the gap between the leading edge of the side panel and the door jamb metal.

Don't these mount at the top of that strip to hold the top of the windlace/strip in place?? (I'm not as familiar with the pre-68 cars).

Is your car a HT or a post car? I have them at the top of the 1/4 opening at the top of the rear door panel. If yours is a post maybe is does not use them??

I found the spot on the door panel where they go. I was looking more at the rear quarter trim area where the windlace strip ends. It's called a windlace end cap? The puzzle piece just didn't fit anywhere there. Thanks for the hints.
