72 supreme

Anyone here can tell me if the rear window or back window is the same for all Gm A body's. I need the rear trim and I have conflicting answers, I have 1 saying that trim will fit any Gm A body and the other saying no.

I don't have my cutlass back from paint yet to measure, but if anyone could measure top to bottom and side to side for me that would be greatly appreciated.

What do you think? (Hint: not even close)

The '70-'72 supreme rear window trim is the same as certain years Gran Prix, not sure of exact years but something like '69-'72?? I have 2 nice top pieces & 1 decent bottom piece but not a nice 4 piece set.

That's what I said. Any chance someone could give the dimensions?

GM A bodys...No they are not the same. As already pointed out.

A 72 supreme is not a 72 S. They are two different animals in the rear body.

Had you asked a more specific question, like "are all NOTCHBACK A-body back windows the same?" or "does a Supreme back window interchange with Grand Prix?", you might have gotten a more useful answer, like the fact that according to Hollanders, the 1970-72 Supreme back window only interchanges with 1971-72 Grand Prix. The 69-70 Grand Prix interchanges with 1970-72 Monte Carlo, but that window is different from the Supreme.
