Title: 71 Deputy quarter glass Felt snap into quarter no fit
Post by: malem2us on July 18, 2023, 02:45:49 PM
Hey fellas, bought full glass kit, and the outer quarter window felts have 4 press in clips, and a bare inch of stainless without the felt at one end.

I only have 3 spots for the clips and none line up.  I disassembled the car 7 years ago, the pictures of the area are corrupted in my files.   did anyone experience issues with these pieces?

This is a bit frustrating, bought the door and quarter window trim set about 4 years ago.

Thanks!

Gary

Can you post pictures of your issues?  That might help a little bit.

I literally fixed my own fubar.....   I brought out 65 mustang convertible quarter glass felts by accident....

Once I looked in the Correct box, they stood out like a sore thumb  :)) :drunk: 

It was hot and I was in a rush.....   not being patient like normal.

I was wondering if that might be the case.  Glad you figured it out!

Worst part of it was the driver side quarter felt, two of the clips broke off immediately while trying to install it so I have to get a hold of re-pop pros and see if I can get a replacement but I bought this in 2017 so it's gonna be a bitch I just opened the package yesterday.

I've found that every single time I try to put mustang parts on my 70 Challenger, I wear out several of those cheap dead blow hammers from Harbor Freight. (Just a little humor there). Glad you got it taken care of. You should see the list of my screw-ups!  :rofl:
