bosworth Posted August 31, 2013 Report Posted August 31, 2013 I'm finally at the point where I can replace the fuzzies for the side windows in my 48 club coup. I got the fuzzies from restoration specialties. Both the inside and outside fuzzies have a black metal bead along one edge. It looks like the old fuzzies, now without any sign of fuzzie left, had the bead facing down so that it wouldn't show. Is this correct? I'll try to reatach the inner fuzzy with staples and hope to save most of the clips from the outer ones. Are there any better ways (glue) to reinstall them? As always, thanks for your help. You guys have sure made this restoration a lot easier for me Bill Quote
steveplym Posted August 31, 2013 Report Posted August 31, 2013 I always thought the metal bead was up. That is how I installed mine. I used 3m weatherstrip adhesive to put mine in as didn't want to mess with the staples. Quote
rumble48 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Posted August 31, 2013 Just did this, fuzzy up as it was before. I used 5-6 small rivets through drilled out staple holes for the inside window sill. craig Quote
desoto1939 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Posted August 31, 2013 I used small sheet meal screws to attach mine. This way I can remove the fuzzy strip if I ever what to replace. Rich Hartung Desoto1939@aol.com Quote
Solution Plymouthy Adams Posted August 31, 2013 Solution Report Posted August 31, 2013 (edited) on the flex channel you have bead in and out and outside choice of stainless reveal...on the glass anti-rattle outside and inside fuzzy strips you will want to mount bead down as this is the actual lip the substitute clip will lock to when installing making the piece a snap in item as was the factory only in a slight variation of clip style....but of course your method of attachment may be different...as some like to glue these pieces in position...do ensure the glass in in the car prior..(some variations of the exterior bead is double beaded and this often recommended for install as you can have an outside stainless reveal with this also..)
