Would that be the same for a 70 Charger?

Thanks, Joe

Yep.  :yesnod:
They also come with the guide clips as well. Expensive little suckers, too.
I think they were used on Dodge vans through the '80's, which may explain why they can still be found at the dealer these days.

do you just glue these into the vent window frame? and if so, do you use weatherstrip adhesive?

thanks, craig

No, they are not glued. The white clips hold them to the glass. You have to use your originals as a template, & punch new holes in the new channel pieces for the clips. A simple hand held paper hole punch does the trick.

Well, bit the bullet and bought the glass run channels, at the dodge dealear ship. dosent seem like a whole lot for 65.00 a side, you get a felt covered piece of plastic, and 2 guide clips, in a nice mopar package. seems wierd buying parts for my 69 at the dodge dealership. all of my clips were broken or missing, and the plastic piece, wasnt reusable, but the windows roll up and down as smooth as silk. lubricated the slides with some soy based lubricant, so they would move easier, just didnt want them to run dry, didnt know if they were supposed to be , but i thought the lubricant could only help. now its time to move on to other things on my punch list for the car. thanks for all the info everyone supplies on this sight. i dont think i could put this car back together without it. :2thumbs:

thanks, craig.
