Hello all, not sure if this has been asked before but I am looking for cat whiskers or window felts whatever you choose to call them for a 1974 Monaco four-door. Really need the front passenger side window rattles all over the place. Has anybody had any luck finding anything like that? Thank you in advance!
 
I don't think it is just the cat whiskers the hold the glass stable. When you remove inner panel, there should be two or more adjustable brackets with heavy felt on the ends. They are adjusted to centre glass in the run and keep stable. The whiskers are mostly to keep debris out and brush off rain or fog.

Thank you for that I'll dig in a little deeper. I probably still need the felts everything seems to be rotten and brittle kind of like me lol

Are they round? I attached a picture are they the bushings? I can see something's missing I'm just not sure what You can lift up on the window and kind of move it all around It is attached but obviously there's something missing is there a kit you can get that you know of?

I dont have your year service manual, but the brackets I am referring to are on the door frame at the top.
 
Have you tried Dante's? I got cat whiskers for my '66 there. Pricey, but that's the way it goes with C Bodies.
 
Thanks guys! How about lower door hinge pins? Or better yet maybe an entire hinge replacement for a '74 style. I can't find anything that is a sure fit

Did you try AMD or Summit? They are being produced. Friend in our club just replaced both upper and lower on both doors for a 74 Charger. He got his thru AMD. Also try Year One.

I've seen other body styles available on the net as well. Forgive my ignorance, is there another body style hinge that is the same? I was assuming the bolt pattern would be different but I honestly don't know.
