I'm restoring a '71 Satellite 4-door and need this cat whiskers/outer belt strip (wipes the window when it rolls up or down) for all four doors.

I checked Restoration Specialties catalog, and they have similar, but not exact, material that is listed for other makes.

If someone sells 2-door material is identical, but in longer lengths, I suppose I could buy two kits and cut them to length.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

www.classicindustries.com may have something. I'd check out their inventory online & if you make a small purchase from them then in a week their pricey mopar specific catalogue will arrive in your mailbox for free & it is a worthwhile addition to your collection as it has a ton of reference pics. If they have the strip you are seeking be sure to JB weld it so it will stay in place

First Place Auto Products used to make the best. Fritz, the owner died some time ago, and someone is carrying on the good name. I would check into them for sure. FPAP.com


I’m listening.

call Dixie Restoration. Randy may be able to get them cut to length. He's offered to do custom stuff work before as he works closely with Restoration Specialties.
