Does anyone offer a reproduction of the 70 Charger interior door panel "Charger" script? This is the small emblem near the top of the panel. Not the round emblem that inserts into the upper door pad. Thanks in advance!  Joe

To date no one has a repro, what I've found to be the closest in size and font for a repro is to use the Charger tail panel script and cut off the rectangular arrow section to free it from the "Charger" script, the repro emblem has just posts on the backside, you can either stake them over by hammering them lightly after installing the script on the door panel, be sure to back up the scripts face on something solid when hammering the posts on the backside, keep in mind the script is very delicate, and the potmetal used on the repros is extremely soft, I used a flat 60 grit flap disc wheel on a grinder to just kiss and smear the studs flat and widen them to lock the script to the panel, you could use speed nuts, but you'll need to drill relief holes in the door's sheetmetal for clearance of the posts/nuts because the interior panel sits flush with the door's steel inner structure

Here's the modified repro "Charger" script mounted on my 70 Charger, I have power windows so the location is diffent...

Thanks Dayclona! I have the measurements from an original panel to locate the emblems properly. I also have a few used emblems. Just not in great shape.
I found the part number to be 3415362 from an original. I also have the original offset washers that the emblem was peened over on the backside. I was hoping someone might have a repop emblem. However, it is not looking good. I do have a couple of the emblems you show above. I will compare to my original door emblems to see the differences.

Sorry to drag this back up as it's been a couple of years but has anyone started making these yet?

Laysons did at one point sell them. That was many years ago. Nobody sells them now.
