'68-'72 Rear Window Trim
So I got a removable rear window to swap into my '74, but I don't have the trim, and an online search only showed the lower piece. Is nobody making this?
Did all '68-'72 coupes have the pop out rear glass? Optional equipment? Are they the same all five years? I ask in case I have to buy used.

Yes
Standard equipment for coupes
They are essentially the same with only small hardware differences.
My advice would be to order any 68-72 AIM and see how the factory installed them. The AIM will list the original part numbers for what you will need.

I got it from another forum member. He cut the a portion roof off and shipped it to me intact. It was latched in place, but the nylon "wear" parts may be gone, I'd have to check. I was thinking the plastic parts that match the upholstery color.

Looks like I will need a left and right. Is there any other panels specific to '68-'72? I'm not really sure what the '73-'77 llok like as mine were busted up/missing when I got the car.

This is an older thread, but I book marked it so I could find it as a quick reference on what is needed and how to do the simple change over. I have about four more small pieces to grab and some paint and I'll be up for the change over this winter. Gotta have some project to do over the non-driving season.
