I believe it is the same for all 68-70 B-body Dodge and Plymouths? I would advertise in the Moparts Parts Wanted...

There's a difference between OE with a vinyl roof and OE without......the repop is middle of the road in size. Tight on a vinyl roof and loose or not tight without so careful what you get. If you have a vinyl roof and there is anyway to restore your original trim I would do that. And you'll have a problem if you find OE non-vinyl roof trim and try to fit it onto a car with a vinyl roof DAMHIK

I agree with above and it is stainless and can be buffed as opposed to it being chrome.

I agree with the others;

- not reproduced
- different between vinyl and non (didn't know at the time and it was a beotch to fit)
- stainless so scratches can be buffed out

...do what I did: buy 3-4 sets and misc. pces on e-pay and mix and match!

Also, isn't the rear quarter finish piece corner different between Coupe/Post and Hardtop 68-70 B-bodies?

Don't think so. I pulled corners off of a GTX with vinyl roof and they were the same as mine from my post with no vinyl roof.
So I think they are the same. The one for a car with belt line moulding is different.

Does anybody know for sure if the corner pieces are different Dodge to Plymouth? Its looking they are, a guy gave me corners from a Charger and the are not the same as my GTX, close, but different. Where is the parts book when I need it?

So would the corners from Dodge Coronet's with belt molding be different that Satelite's with belt molding?

Van's lists a "drip rail moulding" for a 68-70 B body that might be what you are looking for. Poor/small pic on their site though.

I also have heard that oem ones are different for vinyl/non-vinyl roof, so if so and those are what you want, not sure how well they would fit.

if they do make them,
i'm sure you would be better off with originals anyway.
those one size fits all b bodies would have me leary of fitting correctly..
it is not like nice examples are too hard to find.

Yes the belt and non-belt trim is different but I think the bottom C-pillar corner piece is part of the belt molding and the non-belt molding just uses a small loose corner piece...??? Now I have to go and check this
