Trying to find out if part # 984970 door edge guards will fit a 1969 firebird convertible.Could any one help with this answer.Thanks in advance for any help. Jim
67-68 screw on door edge guards do not fit 69. The edge of the door has a different contour, not even close. As far as I know they were not available for the 69 model year...
I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure. I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe. 1968 400 convertible (Scarlet) 1976 T/A - 455 LE (No Burt) 1976 T/A New baby, starting full restoration. 1968 350 - 4 speed 'vert - 400 clone (the Beast!) 1968 350 convertible - Wife's car now- 400 clone (Aleutian Blue) (Blue Angel) 2008 Durango - DD 2008 GXP - New one from NH is AWESOME! 2017 Durango Citadel - Modern is nice!

I'm seeing 988555 listed as a part number for a 1969 GUARD PKG., door edge. So, there may have been some available.
1968 400 Coupe, verdoro green, black vinyl top 1968 400 Convertible, verdoro green, black top 1971 Trans Am, cameo white, auto 1970 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible 350-4(driver)
My 1969 coupe has screw holes for the door edge guard brackets (at least, that's what I think the holes are for). I assume the guards were left off when the car was repainted.
The holes don't look like they were drilled, but rather like they were punched out, so I think they are factory made. The PHS report doesn't mention anything about door edge guards though, when I think about it.
I believe over the years that has been the case many times where things show on an order form and or literature etc. that were not actually available, this may be the case as well...
Hi Vickki,do you still have the door edge guards on and if so,do you have any pics showing how they look? Would you happen to know the part number? Thanks Allen
