I may show up again this year. My wife and kids are asking me about it. lol Are there any rooms left?

Welcome Bob. You definitely have something to work with. What are your plans? Also what size tires are you running in the back?

I can pull the lath lever inside the door up and down. It's a bit stiff though..

Here are some pics for some perspective. I was thinking of bending the tab.

I have the inner and outer felt kit for the "reveal" molding. As I posted in my thread I ordered it by accident.

10-4. Thank you Willie!

I'm having a problem with the locking rod being able to pull up or down. It's binding... I can easily lock and unlock the door with the key but the locking rod seems to bind when I try to pull it up or push it down. Has anybody here had a similar issue?

I'm looking for both.. Do they come with the clips? Do the clips mount on the body? Also there is no rear track to support the back side of the quarter window that faces the rear of the car?

I saw Jared's video about the Fusick rear quarter window seals. My question is how do they mount? On a bracket? If so what does the bracket look like?

Looks great!

Got it. Thank you sir!

Are there any tricks to installing new weather stripping? Is this needed anywhere to supplement the installation?

Has anybody tried paintless dent repair on their MC? I have two slight dings on my drivers side rear quarter panel (makes me sick thinking about it).. My thought is that it may not work do to our cars having a heavier gage steel body compared to new vehicles.

The set that I got. I'm just going to order the correct outers.. They gave me the part number for the outers only. Since I bought these back in November I can't return. The eBay seller isn't responding today and so I'll just eat the difference and order the outers from SS396.com https://www.ss396.com/monte-carlo/MT108A.html

Update for those interested. I called the manufacture today and they told me that my felt kit is for a MC with the "reveal" molding.

Hey everybody, I've got a few questions regarding the felt mouldings. Just so everybody knows my car was missing a lot of things when I bought it. So while putting it back together I'm having to figure several things out such as the weather strip and the felt window mouldings. I bought this kit and and am trying to figure out what goes where (please reference the pictures). I am assuming that the felts with chrome go on the door panels? Right? Also for 1971 was there a piece of chrome (polished) trim that runs along the top of the door next to the moulding? Or is it just a rubber lip from the felt. Any comments and or pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Cool! Thank you Joe.

Does anybody know where to get the wire harness for the transmission downshift switch? I cannot seem to find one...

That's a great Idea! 😎

Cool. Yeah that shouldn't be too bad to fix.

Has anyone here installed a compact powered subwoofer under your MC seat? I don't have my buckets back from upholstery yet but I'm looking at this one. I'm really hoping that it fits.. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_953NANO110/Memphis-Audio-NANO110P-Nanoboxx.html

Thanks again for the inspiration. I just made these out of 16 gauge steel. I'll be installing 3.5" speakers as well.

Thank you for all of the help gentlemen!

Does anybody know what these connectors are for? I've already got the A/C controller all terminated (71 Monte Carlo).

I'm wrapping up my American Auto Wire harness job. The installation instructions are pretty good and their tech support has been great if you have any questions. Here's a link to my first video talking about the kit.
