Default Refitting saph front and rear screens, need advice

My shell is painted and ready to have the screens fitted back in, trouble is I can't remember if I need to fit any seal with the screen or does it just bond on and the seal pop in afterwards?

Any help appreciated as always

Rubber sits round the front and top and bottom of the rear. Also a rubber trim that sits on the aperture hole way round the front and top and bottom of the rear

The guy I got to fit my front screen fitted the seal to the windscreen then fitted it as far as I can remember, my rear was already in but i would guess it fits the same way and the seal pulled in from the inside, I left the front out to put the headlining in.
Front seal only runs up the sides and over the top, rear surrounds the screen completely.
3dr had an inside finishing trim also but according to ford when I contacted them the sapph didn't but not 100% sure that's right although it didn't do anything and can hardly see it.

As I say above the saff dose have an inner trim that sits on the body / aperture. Go's right round the front and along the top and bottom on the rear on a saff
