Vette(s): White '79 Corvette. It's a driver.
   Today I began to install new door glass anti rattle cushions in the passenger door of my '79. I believe each door takes four cushions. I was only able to find and replace the two at the top.
   I looked long and hard at the pictures in the Chilton's manual but just could'nt see where the other two cushions go. I suspect they go down towards the bottom but I could'nt tell from looking at my door or the manual.
   Thanks in advance for any advice.

Can you look at the driver's side door and see if they are in place?

That's a good idea.
I was thinking I'd do one door at a time. I just could'nt see any place where the other two cushions would go.
I'll try the driver's door next.
                                                                        Thanks!

   Thanks Joel. I'm with 'ya on this.
   I'm gonna go back and ask the guy at my local Vette shop where the other two go. (Maybe he won't have a very nice answer for me. Heh heh heh...) Anyhow, thanks for your info.

I thought my 80 had 4.  2 inside and 2 outside at the top rail.
 
I'll check tonight.

There are only two anti rattles on each door and they mount inboard.  If you have four, you have enough for both doors.
