Tips for replacing rear side windows for '72 Road Runner/Satellite?

Anyone know if the DMT cat whiskers are the same (or better than) as the Top Cat Whisker brand?
 
Guys, what about the inner and outer window seals and fuzzies?
What do they look like and who is reproducing them?
Correct, Detroit muscle has them. I got a set am really happy with them. Used them on my 72 SSP.
 
I called Jim at Detroit muscle. He says with the whole Covid thing they are waiting for their supplier of the raw material to get some in.
He also said that the 10pc kit for the 71's are in high demand right now.
He said I'll be waiting for a bit - I asked him to put my name on the list for when they start shipping them out.

regulator goes in first, assemble glass to track, drop glass and track in from the top together.
I am installing the rear quarters in my current project 72 Charger. All was out when I got it. I have all the parts shown above (same as copy in my shop manual). I gather the top right with roller on end goes into the existing channel for it. I have removed the track assembly and attached the glass etc to it and ready to drop all in and attach to the regulator. Only problem is I see a cylinder about 1/2 in diameter attached to the regulator sticking out to the field side (not shown on diagram). Don't know what it is for or if I need to attach it to anything. Can anyone tell me its' purpose?

I think this is what you mean. There is a bracket that bolts to the same side as the regulator and the slider on the pivot arm rides in it

I finally got them installed. The trick was to remove the regulator then install the regulator to slider to window all together then feed all in while feeding the pivot bracket into its channel before dumping the whole assy to the bottom. Earlier while trying to do it without removing the regulater I managed to skratch the tinting on the left one. Will fix that later.
