Need Measurements for Windshield Trim Clips on 70 Challenger
« on: November 03, 2011 - 08:57:32 AM »
Does anyone have the measurements for the holes that the front and rear windshield clips screw into on a 70 Challenger? The channels around my front and rear window in my Challenger have been replaced and I need to know where to drill the holes for the trim mounting clips.

Thanks

Daley, thanks for the pics. They give me a good idea where the clips need to be and if ksierens can get me the measurements I should be all set.

Thanks for the help

Here is what I have.  I used a flexible scale and measured along the face of the channel. (The face that steps down from the roof)



From the Center line to D1 = 1 1/2"
From D1 to D2 = 8 3/4"
From D2 to D3 = 8 3/8"
From D3 to D4 = 7"
from D4 to D5 = 8"



From the Center line to P1 = 4 3/4"
From P1 to P2 = 8 3/4"
From P2 to P3 = 8 1/2"
From P3 to P4 = 7"
From P4 to P5 = 7 1/2"
From P5 to P6 = 7 1/4"

Hope it makes sense, if you have any questions, please ask.
