You are correct. The door panel is just 3/32 maybe an 1/8" above the door bottom. You should see a small lip on the rubber seal that fits into the door panel and the remainder of the seal top goes up behind the panel. The top should have equally spaced holes where the clips would've gone.
At the front of the door I trimmed it at an angle to give clearance as the door closes.
