Witchboard Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) I've looked in the service manual, and on my car and I can't seem to find where these things go.https://zcardepot.com/products/door-window-glass-bumper-rubber-stop-1970-78?variant=19277609861233# I'm replacing all the rubber on the doors and was wanting to check these, but I can't find them. The description indicates they are in the door towards the rear at the bottom. I don't know if mine are missing or if the 1977 is just different. With my windows rolled down, I don't see it hitting a bumper anywhere. Sorry for my ignorance, but does anybody else have a clue? Never mind. Forum search to the rescue.

Zetsaz Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Do you have your door panels off? It's on the interior on the "floor" of the door. It's a rubber bump stop on the inside for when it's completely rolled down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witchboard Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 I found another thread that has pictures and everything, but it doesn't look like my doors have them? Am I missing something? Here's the pics of the inside of my doors both towards the rear and front. I don't even see where they are supposed to mount like what's posted here.

NewZed Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 77 and 78 have a very different style window and door. Might be that zcardepot just assumed they were all the same. What is that actually stops the window, at the bottom of its travel, on your car? That might be the clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witchboard Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 Not sure. Most of the mechanism is hidden. It looks like some kind of scissor action and it just stops. I guess I don't need these then. Thanks everybody for the feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetsaz Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 (edited) Z car depot is generally quite good at pointing out differences between the years and whether or not the part is needed for your car. Hang onto them in case someone else has done the same. I have a friend with a late 280 who might be able to check Edited November 11, 2020 by Zetsaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witchboard Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Thanks. I haven't ordered them yet, so nothing to hold on to. I was just making a list before ordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetsaz Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Ahhhh gotcha! At this point I've replaced pretty much every single warn out rubber/oddball part in my car, and almost literally everything has been taken apart at some point or inspected, so if you have any questions, about weird items feel free to ask me! Some odd stuff specific to only a couple years I'm less familiar with, but body/mechanical/interior specific stuff I'm fairly familiar with original parts at this point.
