Default Help with these 2 items...Pic

Gentlemen, getting down to the last few bits and pieces... For some reason I thought the top two items had something to do with the power window motors within the doors, as in guards. Thumbed every page of AIM... no go . Same story for the bottom two items, one is LH and the other is RH...any ideas??? Thanks Muddy:



Joanne indicated I had better find where they go...as she has them all cleaned and painted... LOL

Default lock shields

the 2 top items are door lock shields ...
they are pictured upside down.
Essentially, they shield your lock mechanism from
the weather elements getting into the door.
In the 1969 AIM, check UPC1, K8, door handle ...

bottom items are the stone guards for the headlights,
when retracted. Fit behind the L&R grill assembly ...

And the lower 2 items are the stone guards for the headlights, they go behind the grilles and are attached with screws to the upper surround metal reinforcement.

I think I saw those Latch covers called Antitheft Shields, they are there to help keep slim jim from operating the latch. But then again I am old and forget stuff
