I Have always wondered about this but haven't tried it. If this is correct just grab the lower stainless off a 4 door Dart or Valiant and give it a try. Since the glass is a different height those moldings can be had really cheap so there is no reason to pay big bucks. The cowlings show to interchange between two door and the four door Darts so the trim should be the same. Anyone that tries it please post their results for us all to see.

I don't have a picture to show, but I can tell you from experience with my 67 Dart GT convertible that all of the trim is different for the hardtops than the convertibles. The convertibles have wide chrome trim around all but the bottom and the hardtops have skinnier chrome strips all the way around from what I have seen. I tried putting the lower strip from a hardtop on my car and it was too long and differently shaped at the ends. However, you might try buying the lower trim like I did and shaving the ends off to solve the differently shaped ends and length issue. Just a thought.
