Door windlace Retainer installation

I know it has to be here, but I've been searching both here in in builds, using the search function, and I haven't found it.

I have to install the retainers in the 48 and I'm trying to figure out the best way.

So if anyone has any words of wisdom before I botch this all up, please share.

Thanks.

Re: Door windlace Retainer installation

There is one end of the wind lace retainer that has a hole punched in it. I looks like they used it to pull on it as the hole was distorted, but I used a punch and smoothed them out.

I was thinking about doing a hole in the other end and then screwing the ends in place with a product like 3M 07333 structural adhesive between the two screws. Miraclepie and I discussed this some time back.

So again before I chase this unicorn, if someone has another idea, I'm listening.
