Need to find a complete set of 8 that actually fit (for the side and quarter glass). Most reproductions are too thin to fill the gap and provide a seal. They are made 1/4" thick instead of near 1/2" thick. The window "gap" is 1" and the glass is about 3/16". NOS would be best, but these can be hard to find. TOPCAT brand will not work for sure or any others on the market that are only 1/4" thick. Needed badly for full restoration project near completion!
 
Check with DMT - Detroit Muscle Technologies. They had the window sweeps for the 2 door sedan doors and quarter windows

Yeah, well those are the TOP CAT brand which, as mentioned left a 1/4" gap on both sides of the glass. Unless they have fixed their manufacturing process they won't work, unless you like water pouring in in rain/snow/car wash situations! DMT products they produce are fine as I have bought many without issues.
 
That's were I bought mine ,Detroit Muscle ,Havent installed them yet
Hi Paul, looks like you car isn't a Sedan, but if you measure your window gap in the door frame and it is 1", then measure your fuzzies - if they are 1/4" thick like mine you will find there is a gap between the fuzzies and glass. Glass should be about 3/16" thick. You might want to check this before installing. I would be interested in knowing if your fuzzies are the same thickness as mine. Thanks
 
YearOne has it listed, not sure if it’s
1/4 or 1/2
The devil is always in the details. They don't say who manufactures them or the thickness of the material being used. I did send an inquiry to them in this regard, so we will see. Others selling "premium" strips are using the same suppliers - so that word is a bit of a misnomer. Thanks for letting me know though!

Checked with them, the fuzzies are 1/4" LIKE EVERY AFTERMARKET AVAILABLE! Sad to say I found out the right thickness is NO LONGER PRODUCED for the 63-66 Dart. If you bought aftermarket you will find this out - no matter what brand! Correct thick material was made by a single company who quit making it years ago (COOPER STANDARD), so, all my 63-66 Dart friends, we are HOSED! Go ahead, throw up now!!
 
Well that sucks.
Anyone familiar with early B or C bodies ?
Maybe they could be shortened and made to work on a dart ???
