On the 240, 90 and later, it is different. That's why I asked for clarification on the year. The image below is the passenger side, but Broos is asking about the driver side, made a bit more complicated in the airbag cars.



(from Dash Held in by 7 Screws)

With the airbag cars, the twist fasteners are gone, and spring clips join the padding to the sheet metal edges before the knee bolster is attached. The rubber ring does work like before, sealing the heater outlet opening.

I've had four of these apart and have yet to find one with a clean installation of that padding on the driver side above the knee bolster. I'm unable to provide the information Broos is looking for, in detail, such as where the clips attach. I have a feeling he will figure it out if he has a crisp new felt to install, and then will educate us.
