aj_ Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Hi all ... I'm looking for a window felt & channel, but not sure where I can buy from. Specifically, for a 74 260 / passenger door / rear felt + rear channel. Anyone got any clues?? Thanks! Quote

gilltech Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 The bailey channel rubber stripping product comes in various dimensions, one of which matches the Nissan Datsun profile, just take yours in to match it. Quote
lightmaster240z Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 yes it works it listed as Datsun Gemini baily channel . It about $15.00 per mt if I remember correctly. Bruce cracker 1 Quote
GregTas Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) I have been doing the same thing. I found what Clark Rubber call 'Datsun' was a bit too small. So I didn't think suitable. There is no exact match. The guy said they came up with a few variants that they thought would cover most applications. So I took a sample of all three from Clark Rubber and went home and test fitted in my channel to work out the best fit. I have picked which one I think will work ok, but I haven't yet been back in to the store to know the stock id. of the one that I picked. So just saying check the 'Datsun' one is ok before you buy it. Edited January 18, 2018 by GregTas Quote
Cozza Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Datsun bailey channel from Rare Spares suited my ‘72 240 perfectly. Quote
aj_ Posted January 26, 2018 Author Posted January 26, 2018 Thanks all. Success at Clark Rubber. Their Datsun size is no. 22. As above though, I’ve grabbed the size up too. Quote
