Once the chrome bumper is in place not much left to be seen. Brian

From the Shop Manual. I have found removing 1 or 2 of the 4 plastic push rivet legs makes the install much easier. Others may have some suggestions. Brian

If your car had a console originally ? The original mounting screw locations can be viewed from the under the car in the tunnel. Careful to avoid the brake line. Take the seats out. Brian

The 'YouTube' video at 17:00 has a brief blurb about shocks. What I got out of the discussion was that hydraulic shocks are to be preferred over gas shocks. If so, that should limit the selection by quite a bit? Brian

Definitely not 9/16's. Smaller and more like 1/2'''. Picture is of the NPD 69 PUI beltline ends. Measured in the vertical position they do measure 9/16" from felt face to rubber backing? Brian

Interesting stuff and disappointing at the same time. I am going to guess the extruder/supplier is the same for all manufacturers/vendors? Thanks for the picture and explanation. Brian

My 69-door window beltline weatherstrips need replacing. I have never done the doors on a 69 so and I am hoping some of you guys, who have, can help out with some recent experiences? Looking at the replacement kits sold by NPD it seems there are 3 kits (4 pieces/2doors) available. One kit is made by Dales and sells for $234. I won't be getting that one. Repop and PUI have kits selling for $93 each. Repop has been around for a while and I have used their product before. Don't know anything about the PUI weatherstrip. The revues for both products are mixed. Any opinions? Thanks, Brian

Has its pros and cons. Does what you expect. Not easy to remove. Brian

My car has both. Two at each window. Brian

69 Flip style. Lift the tab to open. You may have a twist style? In any event a bit of tinkering may be needed. Wise and mature to ask. FWIW a good time to compare your dash gas gauge reading to the actual amount needed to fill up. Brian
