What are these panels?

Post by stuartrubin »

When I bought my '75 Spider several years ago, it came with boxes of random stuff, most of which I ignored. Recently, I've been thinking about the interior which is currently a total train wreck! I stumbled into these parts but I cannot identify them.

Can someone please tell me what these are?

For reference, they are about 18" long.

Thanks!

I tried viewing the image on both my tablet and laptop, and it wouldn’t load on either.

Not sure why you can't see the photos, but here's a direct link:

I can't view them either and get a 404 error when clicking on your links.

I can't see the pictures either. But, could you describe the parts? Plastic? Vinyl? Chrome? Rubber?

Those are the covers/liners/filler strips for the back of the bumpers.

Thanks, Diesel!

I'll have to look tomorrow and see if there are liners already installed and if these are just extras.

The bottom one of the three looks like the inner cover for the rear taillights (inside the trunk).

I meant to say that the bottom one looks like ONE of the inner taillight covers. There should be one on each side of course.
