On my old 74 GTV there was one sheet of plastic.  It was fastened to the
door sheet metal using several beads of a caulk like material.  It was NOT
tucked into the drain slits at the bottom of the door, rather the caulk line
went across the bottom of the door just under the drains.  The plastic was
just pushed through over the window and door operating pieces.

Same system was used on my Spider.
