MH77280Z Posted October 19, 2023 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2023 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 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrapin Z Posted October 19, 2023 Share #2 Posted October 19, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MH77280Z Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share #3 Posted October 20, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrapin Z Posted October 20, 2023 Share #4 Posted October 20, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrapin Z Posted October 20, 2023 Share #5 Posted October 20, 2023 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. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MH77280Z Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share #6 Posted October 20, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MH77280Z Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share #7 Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) @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, 2023 by MH77280Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrapin Z Posted October 21, 2023 Share #8 Posted October 21, 2023 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.

Terrapin Z Posted October 22, 2023 Share #9 Posted October 22, 2023 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.
