Default 34 garnish moldings?

I have got the chance to buy some 4 door front garnish moldings and am I correct in thinking that they will fit 5 window doors? the measurements are as follows They are 34.25 inches long and 16 inches high on the outside, The inside, or the opening measures 32.5 long and 13 inches high. any thoughts on this.thanks

Yes they will fit a 5w. You will need to shorten the rear most portion by about 3/4 inch. If you do the shortening in the corner they will be easier to do.

Ok thanks for that,

so the sizes sound correct for a 4door front and not a 2door sedan?

This is about what my '34 fordor garnish moldings measure. The 34" ones have to be from a Tudor.

Thanks for the information guys, Guess I better not buy them then, could have proved a bit costly especially with the shipping

Well if anybody is looking for some Tudor ones then they are on the auction site and this is the item number 330612641232

I failed to look at the measurements and yeah they do seem too long for the short 4 dr doors. If you find some from a 4 door you can make them work on a 5w since 5w stuff can be pricey.
