Ok,
 
So I just got my 85 back after several Months in the body shop for a complete paint job. Part of the deal was that I had to put everything back together! I am at the very last and final stages of putting the w\s moldings on the side but it's been so long that i forgot how the holes lined up with the lower molding and the upper weatherstrip retainers that mount on top of the molding. I am yanking out the very last few hairs on my head trying to figure this out.
 
Does anybody have any pics or diagrams or points of view how to reinstall them? HHHHEEEEELLPPPP Please?

I'm not sure we are talking the same thing here. I completely stripped the car and painted "Everything", including the molding, the area underneath the moldings, everything!!
 
The question at hand here is, which holes line up between the Molding and the w/s retainer and the molding and the pillar in which it mounts to!
