Screen to Scuttle Seal

Any suggestions for sealing screen to scuttle ?? All the stuff I have seen so far requires a channel in the bottom of the screen frame and mine is plain - what have others used ??

Thanks all
Simon

Rubber trim with a square channel for the screen bottom and a big tadpole tail. Can just about see it in my SVA pics.

Along these lines

Thanks for the adhesive / sikaflex suggestions, unfortunately the screen frame profile is nothing like the scuttle profile, so I have some big gaps to take up - the more I think about it the more I like the idea of cutting an aeroscreen for myself and leaving it as a roadster - all that screen, wipers and heater stuff just adds weight after all, and Lord knows Vientos don't need more weight.......
