Posted October 19, 20231 yr comment_658282 Cannot locate this one. Can someone send a pic if possible? I have the panels and glass removed as I am working on the door but cannot find this stopper!!! https://zcardepot.com/collections/weatherstripping/products/door-window-glass-bumper-rubber-stop-1970-78?_pos=1&_sid=0da72075a&_ss=r# Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/68622-door-glass-bump-stopper-280z/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 19, 20231 yr comment_658283 When the window is rolled down the bottom edge sits on the rubber bumper. there is one on each side towards the front. Often the metal clip rusts out and it falls away from the mount hole. I couldn't find a good pic online either.

October 20, 20231 yr Author comment_658288 Hmmm I have already installed the glass inside the door. But I am sure nothing like this exit inside my door! a better pic would be nice.

October 20, 20231 yr comment_658301 Without it I expect the metal frame on the lower part of the window would hit metal to metal. I'll see if I can get some better pictures after work today.

October 20, 20231 yr comment_658334 My mistake before. The pad sits in the rear portion of the door. Slightly forward of where the the lock cut out is. There is a raised bracket that has a rectangle hole in it for the spring clip. I hope these pic's help. Pardon the rust.

October 20, 20231 yr Author comment_658342 Appreciate the photos. Let me try to locate mine. Rear make sense as the glass bracket is tilted on the rear and that side should come in contact first.

October 21, 20231 yr Author comment_658357 @Terrapin Z which year/model car these pics are from? I am pretty certain my 77 280z do not have any place for this stopper. I have checked thoroughly. I think my window regulator just stop at the right time i.e. it has finite movement. Seems like even on this thread the folks where not able to locate any room for these in a 77 280z. https://forums.hybridz.org/topic/132000-window-bumper-rubber-location/ Edited October 21, 20231 yr by MH77280Z Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/68622-door-glass-bump-stopper-280z/#findComment-658357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 21, 20231 yr comment_658362 1976 and 1971 respectively, I think I have a 77 - 78 door I'll look again. I know those doors were different in a lot of way from the earlier cars. It was noted in the other thread that it might be a typo in ZCD's description.

October 22, 20231 yr comment_658430 I checked the door I have from a 78 and there is no bracket in the door like the one's shown above. There is no glass in my door so I am uncertain if there is some bumper mounted to the glass frame / support. I would say the bumpers ZCD sells will not work in 77 - 78 doors.
