After putting the car on pause for a bit, I am trying to get it back on the road this winter. I am looking for a nice driver quality set of the metal strips that go along the bottom of the door side panels that attach the bottom of the door panels to the doors.
1969 Impala convertible.

I only checked quick and I may have 2 good ones available, but it looks like they are glued on. Let me know if that is correct.

I may not be correct as it has been years since I worked on the car. If I remember correctly, you peel back the vinyl on the bottom of the door panel and they slide onto the bottom of the panel. The pieces have little "spikes" that you pull the vinyl tight and then press against to hold into place. It has the plastic ovals that attach the lower side of the panel to the door.
