Well, don't worry. Any time will be fine. There's no hurry.

Joe the "I" section at the bottom which you have marked in yellow goes in to the chrome and the "L" leg goes against the chrome on the inside of the window so the glass in its chrome sits against this as you close the window. It is pretty self explanatory when you offer it up. If you put it in the wrong way you cannot close the window!
The "L" on my first seal was way to thick and the window would not pull up to it and close properly.
Hope this photo of the rubber in my window helps.

Would the rubber go into the chrome (outlined in yellow) as shown in the photo and which side should the rubber lip be facing? If not correct, does the glass go in to one of the little slots and if so, which one? My rubber looks like the top photo.

Love the pick axe handle, same method I've seen in the Jaguar factory on the line fitting doors on new XJ6's in the 80's
.

As an old fashion engineer Nigel I do like to use the traditional methods used in the factories in the 1960s.

Orlando if you can find an old rear window switch I can supply the escutcheon for you should you wish to copy it.
