http://www.ebay.ca/itm/70-72-Olds-Cu...item2c45176c69 but this is for a convertable. ? thanks

 

Try http://www.fusick.com/cutlass_442.htm

 

fusicks doesnt have them. thanks though.
supercars unlimited does for anyone else looking.

 

Sure they do. Look on page 68 of their new catalogue. They've had these parts for years.

 

ah right you are. missed em on the page i thought there were only ones for the later years. pardon me. thanks allan. just a fyi supercars does have the 8 piece set. anybody have a oninion on the diff in quality from supercars to fusicks for this item?

 

You would need to ask the vendors what brand they carry and go from there...

 

alright. not that important just thought if anyone had first hand experience...

 

I got mine from Fusicks and when I compared them to OEM they were pretty much bang on. In the old days the repros were really bad getting the bead on the outside of the fuzzy right. They used to have a 'squared' bead. Now they have the proper rounded one. Haven't installed mine yet but it doesn't look like it will be too big an issue. BTW, you will have to take the side glass out to get the screws that hold the outside fuzzies on.

 

awesome. thanks allan. the side windows are already out so thats no problem. the hardest part is figuring out where everything goes on a car i never took apart. be
sure this wont be the last of me.

 

update. they do not fit. the curve at the back of the rear windows is not sharp enough. had to modify them to ge them to fit. i would try go with supercars if anyones interested. it states on their site that " they actually fit"

 

Where did you get them and what brand were they?
Mine had the same issue. I ordered them from bap 4 years ago and they were "Repops" brand.
It does not matter that much on the supplier, it is the manufacturer that determines the quality. It would be nice to know what manufacturer makes the ones that fit.

 

I think the only vendor for window felts is PUI. There was another,POP's I think it was but I heard they went out of business. I could be wrong but when I was looking for felts for my 66,PUI was it.

 

I got some from Fusick for my 71. Only issue i seem to recall is that a couple of the pre-drilled holes were slighlty off Left to Right and needed to open them up with my "dentist drill".

 

Ya they are PUI. All i know is they were terrible. besides the fact that the curve was wrong almost all the holes for the rear windows were out as well. ill post up a pic of what i had to do to make them fit. it worked but should not need to be done.
