71MonteCarloMD Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 I saw it’s available set of 8 for shovelles, wondering if there’s set for our Montes? And am trying to figure what this screw is for as it’s rusted out on top corner of drivers door? Circled in red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Hi. Yes they sell the window felt kits for Monte Carlos. You can get just the outers, on the body or a complete set of inner and outers. There are 2 styles. One for the wide belt mouldings like on a custom and the "regular" style. Also have a choice of flat or rounded style for the "regular" style. The screw you refer to is for the door weatherstrip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Just remember if you have beltline molding you need to order the felts for with special molding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
714024SPEED Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 There is a little metal tab that is part of the weather strip that the screw goes into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

71MonteCarloMD Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 Thanks all as I’m not sure what I have so am attaching pictures, can you tell me what I have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Lol looks like both the flat on the door panel and round for the door/outside. I feel it's more of a personal preference unless you are going parts correct show car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71MonteCarloMD Posted June 29, 2019 Author Share Posted June 29, 2019 Hmm, if I order set of 8, will I be able to install that on door panels as I don’t see how it’s attached? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Hey Rick, I haven't gotten that far yet but I have a complete set I purchased from Luttys The insides are held on by staples, the outsides are screwed in. In the package was directions they say before you take off the interior panel loosen the staples up with a screw driver because they are held in place and your not chasing them all over. then take off the panels and use a cutting plyiers to completely remove them. Then install the new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

71MonteCarloMD Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 Thanks Larry! does that means I should be able to get outside felts set only? Who sells that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Yes, you can get the outsides only. OPGI, The Parts Place, Koniks, etc. Just Google search 71 Monte Carlo window felts and choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leghome Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I bought My outside from The Parts Place Inc. I bought some of the custom moldings from Cory(from MI) I can not remember his screen name and had Murphy refurbish them. The felts I got from them were good except I had to modify them for the custom moldings. Cory got some that were correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71MonteCarloMD Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Thanks Thomas and Larry, will check with The Parts Place. What are the difference with custom moldings? Edited July 1, 2019 by 71MonteCarloMD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72-CLASSIC_RIDE Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 The Custom Moldings do not have that chrome strip running along the length of the outside felts. That strip of chrome would get in the way of the Belt Moldings that are standard on the 72 Customs so they are made without that chrome strip. That's the only difference..................

71MonteCarloMD Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Thanks Doug for explaining as I see that I have regular ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
