That black material looks like 20oz black/plush comercial carpet with unitairy backing. used tons of it in hotels ect for the sides of halways where they had a patterned carpet in the center ect.
I have some 32oz here but it would be way thicker
I wonder if a carpet mill would make some with just the primary back instead of the primary and secondairy backs

Which is what year? Are these from E bodies? Are the other "bodies" the same material?

Also looks like theres a backing on the hair ones that wrap around the bracket.

Is that hair one in the one picture removed from the bracket? If so can you lay it out flat and take a picture and some measurements? I found a company that ACTUALLY makes the stuff but they have MASSIVE minimums.

Also how "tall" is the hair on each? Have a set of calipers to measure accurately?




Jim, yes these are all for a Challenger. The fuzzy ones are off my 71, the hairy ones I can't be sure - they were either also off my 71 or off the donor doors which were not 71 (don't know if they were 70, 72, 73 or 74 - I suspect 70)

On BOTH types the backing material wraps around the brackets - you can see it on the fuzzys in the pic if you look carefully

Yes I still have those and certain I have some material removed from the brackets, I am happy to take some pics of that and measurements too as soon as I get a chance (hopefully tonight!)

I'm really glad to see discussion on this topic. I was wondering where I was going to find this stuff. I'm restoring a 70 Challenger R/T that has the same problem that everyone else.

I'm extremely interested in the out come of this! I'll buy the material when it's ready.

Thanks,
71WMFJ6

71TA,

All these are from an original 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T door. I hope that this was what you were looking for

Thank you, timely revival of this topic. I need to reinstall my window parts shortly and had been wondering about this again.

BTW, I'll make sure to rub it on the old part first, to get the brand x cooties off before installing it.

Can someone please confirm one way or the other if these guides talked about in this thread were typically installed on '72-'74 E-bodies? I'm currently working on putting my '74 'Cuda back together, I have every single part that came off the car in little labeled bags, but it doesn't look like my car came with these. My original glass had bad scratches on it, maybe these were removed at some point? Technically though it looks like when adjusted properly it could do without them, so I'm confused. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Yup, that's why your glass is scratched and why your glass rattles when you close your door. Got to use them. Easy to glue something on there that is better than glass on metal.
