those 2 strips seal the fabric top to the steel brace across the top of either side window. they glue onto the fabric. looking at your picture the fat end glues onto the fabric roof just where your thumb is and then along to the back of the window opening. the same on the other side.

also where the little "wing" is at the front there should be a screw that holds a wire that goes through a sleeve in the fabric to the back of the window area and then ties onto a short arm on the top frame so that as you put the roof up and tension it the short arm moves back and pulls the top down onto the top of the brace across the window thus sealing the fabric to the window brace with the rubber strip.

if you email me your picture I will draw where the bits go onto your picture

cheers
