Im replacing the original dry rotted door window sweeps. The outer seem like a direct replacement. 6 or 7 screws and done. The inner are held onto the door panel with large staples that wont be reusable. Are those stock style staples available or is there a better way to attach. Glue might work but I would prefer an actual fastener.

Any thoughts ?
 
Odds are the screws won't line up on the outer sweeps, so you'll have to shoot new holes. No big deal, but it's not a 2 minute job after the window is dropped down.

Swapping out the inners on the upper door panel will take a little more caution. I'd probably use safety wire to replace the factory staples.
