55-59 door bumper rubber
 
1 Attachment(s)
Can anyone tell me what location the 3 different rubber door bumpers are supposed to go? I want to make sure before I install them, but I think they are... the short flat one goes at the front of the door in front of the wing window, the short cone shaped one goes at the top rear corner, and the tall cone shaped one goes at the bottom rear corner. Is this right?

Did you buy those as a door bumper kit? I bought a large package with bunches of different bumpers. The large cones are at the upper rear corner of my doors. They are the only bumpers on the doors and they work great. I thought I had the small flats in the glovebox but just checked and I have no bumpers in the glovebox. I have never figured out where the small cone goes.

The large flat bumper on the left goes on the front of the door frame by the vent window

The middle one goes on the lower door jamb

The right one goes just below the drip rail, it cushions the top of the door

Yes I bought the door bumper kit from Bowtie Bits. I also bought the glove box bumpers separately, and they are different than these.

Thanks! I was close, but glad I checked first.
