Need some help on 1988 Convertible Bow Seal

Have all my seals on but the rear bow seal! The ends of the bow seal have an attachment for a screw to hold it but cant for the life of me find a photo can anyone help me out with that? When I bought the car the seals were all ripped up and don't remember detaching thanks...

Hi- I don't have a picture handy but there should be a hole in the bow-ends that gets riveted onto the frame. I had a new bow and within 8 months it was flapping loose again- the holes get enlarged.

The backside of that- so nearer the trunk than the side glass
