Looking for OEM door trim for a 1970 Olds 442 convertible interior. My car had a couple interior when I purchased it so I have very nice OEM trim to trade.
This is an image of the interior I replace and you can see the trim pieces I have below the arm rest. Very nice, not dents, easily polished to like new.

I'm not 100% sure but the trim along the top edge of the carpet SHOWN IN YOUR PIC (your first pic) may not be correct either. That MIGHT be some aftermarket trim/stainless that came w/the door panels.
If '70 convert door panel trim is like 71/2 then what you show is NOT original ( again, referring to your pic of the BLACK door panel)
Here is a pic of what I think MIGHT BE the correct style door panel trim for your convert (I know it's correct for 71/2 Cutlass and 442 converts).....and note - the trim shown in my pic below is TWO pairs for the same side door panel. I'd have to look to see if I have the pair for the other side door panel.
Don't have a '70 convert here to look at but will have access to one w/correct door panel trim on Monday.
In this image you can see the trim pieces from the coupe interior, quality stainless and steel mounting pins, the other piece I ordered from Fusick and are said to be correct for 1970.
I order a lot from Fusick and their stuff is normally really good but on these trip pieces the quality is not there.
The first image I posted was from a "survivor" 1970 so the trim "should" be correct and to some extent it looks similar to the Fusick pieces.
I will look to the forum to guide me to the right parts and hope to find real OEM pieces.
The black door panel pic you posted (first pic) is NOT a "survivor" door panel IMO....look at the wrinkling in the woodgrain on the panel. That is very typical of PUI brand repro door panels and my be is that is what that pic shows....PUI door panel w/their attempt at repro lower stainless trim.
I'll dig around some more tomorrow.....I think (but not 100% sure) that the style of trim I posted a pic of (and it IS original/assembly line trim) is the correct style.
The style of trim that I posted a pic of is what is correct/original for a '70 442 Convertible. The trim shown in your pics is all incorrect for a '70 convert.
I think the trim I'm saying is correct was used on the Supreme body style cars .....and converts are part of the Supreme body style lineup.
