The side panel, can anyone confirm that while it sits underneath the seal (obviously), it sits on top of the sill trim and the pillar trim? I.E. like in these photos.

 

Managed to take off both sides and whilst I don't see how it could go any other way, I didn't want to have it wrong. Car is an Octavia Mk3.5

 

TIA

The plastic panel provides access to the fuse panel on RHD cars.

The seal look’s correctly placed to me, as does the panel. 

 

I’ve moved your post to the Octavia section, so you’ll hopefully get more replies now too.

I am pretty sure its correct. Seal would definitly sit above the plastic otherwise it would let water in.

You are all good. Seal look counterintuitive, but as others have stated...it's correct. Seal sits of top. If it looks proud, press on the panels to make sure they all home.
