20 yrs ago I replaced all the window felts/fuzzies etc on one of my fleetlines. I have to replace a cracked glass and wanted to go ahead and do the felts on this car. Anyone who has done this in the past several years, could you let me know which supplier you used and give any insight on ease of install, part quality and value. I know most suppliers have them, but where can I get the best quality and value for my money. Thanks

Any new tips on install would be appreciated also.

I bought mine from The Filling Station as well for my 48 Aerosedan and installed them about 3 years ago.. No real problems...just take your time. I don't know about the 49-54 model years, but for my 48 there was a good section in the Fisher Body Manual, Service and Construction book that I have. I'm sure there must be a similar manual for the 49-54 models.

When in doubt on finding parts, always look in the Filling Station catalog first since they usually carry everything that is currently available. And, a lot of their rubber products are from Steele.

wink :) :grin:
