Custom Trim Option

Q: Custom Trim Option

I am confused that my car has the custom option trim (554) but it only has standard interior.

A: The Custom Trim Option with custom seats for the 1968 Firebird was identified on the Firewall Trim Tag as Style 22667 (conv) -or- 22637 (coupe). (22467 and 22437 were Std. Interiors). According to the sales literature, the Custom Trim Option (code 554) included the following…..

  • Deluxe Wheel Discs

  • Deluxe Steering Wheel

  • Door and Quarter Trim (molded vinyl)

  • Vinyl and Weave pattern Seats

  • Roof Rail Mldgs

  • Wheel Opening Mldgs

  • Instrmt. Panel Grip (Grab Bar)

  • Pedal Trim

  • Dual Horns

There are other features that were apparently associated with the Custom Trim Option that were not so obvious such as the different (longer) window regulators. Some items have also been speculated to have been also included such as…

  • 160 mph Speedo

  • “BIRD” Emblem on Glove Box Door

  • Custom (Deluxe) Seat Belts (brushed metal buckles w/GM button)

  • Small white “BIRD” etched onto fwd/lower corner of front side glass

  • Windshield ‘A’ pillar Mldgs (interior) ??

  • Wheel Trim Rings (when ordered w/Rally II wheel option)

All items in the Custom Trim Option could have been ordered individually on a 22467 (or 22437) car except the Deluxe Interior, 22667 (or 22637).

A: The body tag series number changed to reflect the custom trim option (Code 554) and had a different number for custom interior (26) or standard interior (24):

  • 22437 std interior with custom trim option (coupe)

  • 22467 “” (CONV)

  • 22637 deluxe interior with custom trim option (coupe)

  • 22667 “” (CONV)
