I have a set that I used the outside ones on the car and I am getting ready to install the door panels and the ones in the set for the inside rivot to the door panel where as the originals kinda slip on or clip on. Does anyone make the original style ones or am I stuff with the rivot style?

Thanks in advance, Kevin

These are the best available, youll probably use them to replace what you already used on the outsides once you see the difference.

Thanks guys, I went to the site and downloaded the catelog but there are no illistrations, how do they attach? Is it the same clip on still at the factory or do they rivot on as well?

The Top Cat Brand inside's snap on just like the originals. My concern based on your post is that the outers you have are incorrect as well. If it has a rubber lip that rides against your glass, it's wrong. It should be a felt lined sweeper in a v or u shaped channel.

Why is that a problem? Because when you wash the car or if it gets caught in the rain, that rubber lip will let water inside your doors. Our channeled outer felt lets the water drain like it should on the outside.

Here's a link to our felts: http://www.dixierestorationparts.com/product.cfm?pi=407E7EAB-EF81-FC33-20839983E174EB6E

If we can help, please let us know.

Thanks,
Randy

Thank you, you are correct the outside wipes have the rubber lip. I was thinking of driving up but Ball Ground is a little too far for an afternoon run. I also need the clips that go on the inside of the door panels at the top if you have those. I'll give you a call sometime tomorrow.

Thanks again, Kevin

If you look at the detailed description once you click on the product, it’ll state that it’s measured up the sail panel:

71-72 Plymouth B body window felts- early-longer- inner curved felt that goes up the sail panel is 11 1/2" long.
71-72 Plymouth B late- window felts- rear inner felt that goes up sail panel is shorter- 10 3/4"

Check your car out and let me know if that makes sense.
Thanks!
Randy
