what's the scoop on the 60 series door belt molding(weatherstriping) ? (I searched and can't seem to find the right post)
Yesterday i went out and installed a new window run(drivers door) and while I was at it did the outer belt molding(the chrome trim rubber outside of window) I took off the old chrome piece and busted all the clips, no problem I was putting new on. I went to my box of W/S and pulled out the new rubber and spent 2 hours trying to figure out how it attaches to the chrome piece. I then googled the part # and found it was the molding that just clips into the door and does not use the chrome piece. OK..that went on easy. But I'd prefer to keep the chrome if I can.
So I dug around some more in the shop and found(from 2012) just 1 of the belt molding pieces 98210 90A01 that does attach to the chrome trim. I compared the 90A01 to the 90A02(no chrome) and the rubber itself seems to be the same, except it has metal clips(not the plastic)
So.....can I get the metal clips and replace the white plastic clips on the 90A02 and use them with the chrome piece? it would seem like this would work. (however the old molding I took off had plastic clips(but not like the new stuff)
I am kinda confused
