I suggest you buy the shiny chrome plastic stuff from any auto parts store. It does work.

'04 4.6 SOHC, NOS, auto, lowered

Don't know if I have room for the plastic ones,I would have to measure them first. I want stainless. As far as the installation, I wouldn't recommend just smashing them on. Original paint car might be able to fit them out of the box. But, I am sure my doors are thicker. So they will need "massaged " before final installation. They want 99.00 for re-pops from OER.

Ive got them for several of my old mopars but im skiddish of what it takes to put them on in terms of hurting the paint, as well to me its another place dirt and moisture can hide. Ditto.

I have a set off of '70 coronet doors, i'll have to look for them. Not sure if they are factory, but i do remember some numbers or writing on the inside?
I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

Tore the paint right off. Primer/sealer is in tack tho. Paint is destroyed under everything you bolt on anyway,no big worry. Not concerned,ain`t driving this in the winter much LOL. Won`t even get wet unless by accident. If it was a GTX or something with more trim I might have not done them. I like the way it adds a litte flash on those plain sides.
