Help...Vega door & hatch rubber bumper measurement

Postby cjbiagi » Mon Jun 27, 2016 9:42 am

I am getting some door bumpers for a Vega and wanted to see if someone could measure the height of them on their car. These come in different thicknesses, basically 1/2" and 3/4" so I wanted to confirm which is correct for Vega's. I need to know how far out it sticks from the door. Also, can someone also check the thickness on the rubber hatch bumpers as well. Thanks.....

Clyde, the door bumpers on my '78 Monza wagon measure a little under 1/2", so definitely NOT 3/4". As for the hatch bumpers, I couldn't tell you. I found a round bumper in my Astre leftovers and it measures about 3/8", but it was probably a trunk bumper from the parts car. Don't know if they would be the same.

Clyde,

We measured the door bumpers on Richard's low miles 1976 Vega GT.
The bumpers are like new.
They measure 1/2" for both the top and bottom bumpers. (see photos)

The hatch bumpers are different. They measure 3/8". (see photos)

John and Richard
