Junkyard Door Trim?

[MARKDTN]

I know on the 67-72 you can use 2006-11 Honda Civic door trim and it fits very nice. Is there any such junkyard source from a newer vehicle for a square body?

I think maybe you are talking about for seals? I'm pretty sure that the same honda stuff fits for the squarebodies. Have you done a search? The word honda might do it. Or get dimensions on the perimeters of the applicable doors.

Yes, door seal-sorry. I did do a search and all I see is 67-72. Are the square bodies door seal similar in length to a 67-72?

I thought I'd seen it talked about in a squarebody form, but I did a search and I only saw it in the previous generation and one thread for the generation before that. I think it's safe to say that the doors are similar size and shape, but beyond that I think you'll need to look into it to find the dimensions on the doors or the lengths of those materials.

I used the Honda Civic trim on my 66 C10. It fit great. Next time I'm at the Junkyard I will grab some from a Civic and try it on my 81 C10.

So I went to the pick-a-part and found some. Turns out that the drivers side was rough on all of them where I guess your feet drag getting in and out. There were 6 cars to choose from, 1 was hit hard in the front and the drivers door wouldn't open and 1 was already gone so I got the best of the 4. It is OK, but really not what I would call a direct swap. It is probably a couple inches short (I have not cut it yet so I don't know exactly) and there is a squared corner that does not have a great place to go when installed. Also the pinch weld must have been thicker in the Honda because I had to really squeeze it back together so it didn't just fall off. It was cheap enough at like $10 so I can't complain, but I would not recommend for a square body.

Interesting. Thanks for the follow-up.
