There is a plastic part that goes through the window glass and locks it to the Regulator channel on my '74's side windows. Is there a source for these, or a replacement that will work?

Post a picture of what you need and I'll see if I can find one for you.

After mine broke (and I needed a replacement immediately) I went to the hardware store and found a plastic bushing that worked. I ended up using a plastic tie wrap threaded through the center of the bushing and under the channel to ensure it stayed there.

Been fine for a year now.

But I would love to get the correct piece (and a spare!) if someone sells them.

I've been looking for the same piece for my '67 Dart Convertible. I'd love to find a correct part before I jury-rig it...

are you talking about the plastic rollers that work in the regulator channel?

I can't speak for the other guys, but I'm not. It's a circular plastic "rivet" that pops through the hole and secures the glass to the regulator arm.

Yep. Rivet that holds the glass to the rail.

I think I'll snag a good one and head down to the model shop. See if one of the machinists can turn me a few. G'Job! :)

Hey, if he can turn a few more, I'll pay... :)
