The later model strips glue to the front edge of the door jamb if I recall correctly, starting as down low as you can, with the beaded part sticking out above the surface of the car exterior. Its purpose was/is to spoil the area over the leading edge crack in front of the door to keep air pressure off the interior seals. So, I think it goes to the body, not the door. Somebody please correct me if I am wrong, I am just remembering the way it was on my Carat.
