    Can anyone post a pic of their door wedges in a 64-67 convertible? My 65 special doesn't have any, and I cant pictures of where they might be installed if I purchase them. I cant even confirm that they were used, or can be used, on a 64-67.

    On a 70 their are screw holes on the door jam.

    Look in Ames catalog online...door components...item F140...65-67 GTO for a pic

    thanks, it looks like they go near the very top of the door.

    One piece goes on the door, one on the jamb, then shims for fitment. I think there are dimples in the sheet metal on the door where the door piece goes. Jim said holes, but if your doors have been swapped from a coupe there wouldn't be any holes.

    Yep, the wedges are used on the 64-65. Here are the pictures. The door wedge is between the door panel and the weather strip. The quarter jamb wedge is next to the windlace. If someone did put hardtop doors on there should be two small dimples to guide your drill. If they are not there then they may have been painted over or filled smooth.

    The pictures will show you the shape and direction too.
