    Wheelz,
    Is this the same as a 69?

    Yes.....however, the 69 does NOT require those plastic cups and do NOT have tapped, threaded holes for them....

    George,
    The interesting thing is that I have a drivers side cup, but not the passengers side. I need to take a closer look at my drivers side. Did our cars have a vacuum canister?

    Thanks for the info,
    Mike

    [​IMG] Notice the cups are molded in the 69 Buick GS grille...

    Yes, our vacuum canister is a plastic one that is mounted on the firewall..

    George,
    I understand on the cups. I only wish my grill looked like that. What was the purpose of the vacuum canister? I have never seen this canister before? Does yours have it? Is your wheel well trim held on with black or chrome screws?

    Thanks for the info,
    Mike

    All of my wheelwell trim has the stainless, NOT chrome screws....

    The vacuum canister is only there for AC and "optioned" 69's (vacuum door locks, vacuum trunk release)....

    Are they self-tapping? I'm trying to put mine back together as correct as possible.
    Cheers,

    Sorry Wheelz, no thank you. It looks like these fit '68 only. Mines a 1969 and the cups are part of the grill. I need to quit high jacking your For Sale threads for information.

    Cheers,
    Mike
