1936 Buick - 41 - door bumper replacement

[Paul White]

Hi all,

 

I am seeking guidance in relation to removal of the door bumpers. Having had a look at them I am assuming I need to lever them off some how. Can any one advise ?

 

Cheers

It`s a push in item, should just slide out. Looks to have been painted over sometime in the past, might have to use a small blade screwdriver around the edges to free from the paint.

Paul if I remember correctly they slide in but have a small lip that fits into the door frame. It seems like mine had turned rock hard and came out in pieces as I tried to pry them out. Steele Rubber makes replacements. I believe the part number is 70-1159-71

I&I Reproduction(Chevy parts) also has the bumpers set of 4, $20 item DB03

Mine are rock hard too, replacements arrived in the mail today along with a bunch of other parts, fun weekend ahead
