Eric, You must have forgot, 9 months ago I told you that I started to carry them and they are the best on the market. You won't find a more correct set of beltstrips out there on the market....

Is there a group buy for the window felts going on? If so, I would like to get in on it.

Nick, that would be great. Also how do the inners attach to the upper door panel?

Hi Guys,

I can tell you that I purchased the felt strip kit from AZ-Nick after first getting the one from Paddock parts (PUI) and realizing that half of their kit(PUI) would never fit a '71 RR. -The rear side window strips simply doesn't fit on a '71!

The kit from AZ-Nick fits great and the quality is way better than the Paddock kit.
I also re-covered the vinyl on my upper door panels and fitted the inside door felt strips with the original metal clips. Hell of a job to straighten the clips and re-install them, but the result is great.

In the end I think the kit is worth every penny, it really makes the car appear new and fresh. I hate the look of old cracked felt strips on a freshly painted car.

Sorry for not posting the pics, I am having Surgery on Friday and last night I was caught up on doing things to prepare for it. I will try to take the pics tonight. Just as Capsule said, they are the best original looking set out there on the market.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. The felts go inside the metal strips, like on the doors, correct? If they do, do you slide them in to the metal strips?

From memory here, I tought they were stapled on the metal part of the upper door panel.
