I've been looking at some seals on my '74 and the list of replacement seals available from a certain member here.
Help me shop! Here's some I think I need, but I'm trying to go for the best value proposition and, frankly, trying to be lazy about it. I'm not sure which are glue versus which clip/pop into place. Are there any that are pointless without invasive discovery and tackling of rust in channels etc? Not really planning on having any paint or body work done any time soon, although I think about it a lot... So any difficulty ratings, "do it, it's a no-brainer", ones I should add, or other comments are very much welcome.

Just installed many of the seals you mention:
Inner and outer door seals - inner clip on; outer fit in channel- I did not glue Vertical targa bar seals - slide in, the glycerine is a help Rear trunk seals - both clip on Front hood and bulkhead seals - bulkhead is clip on; main seal fits in channel, doesn't have to be glued if good quality fit Outer door/window scrapers - slide on End caps for the doors - screw on Tail-lights (housing to body) - held between body and housing, newer ones have adhesive on 1 side to hold in place better during install.
