Roof Rails..."Sedans Only?"

Mikey1968 · May 7, 2009

On eBay, there are some roof rails that are listed for "sedans only".....would these also fit hatchbacks? Is there a difference between them? I would think not.

I asked them and they don't have a clue....just said whatever the listing says is what it fits......

Anyway, these rails are repros at less than half of what the resto shops are selling OEM ones for. Anyone get the repros? Are they fine for a daily driver?
Thanks,
Mike

What part do you refer to?

what exactly is a roof rail?

The little black channels next to the door frame?

I think they are the same on coupe and hatch because he 1/4 window starts at the same place

That's that thin black rubber coated trim above the door on the roof. In Classic Mustang terms, it would be called the drip rail. Many don't realize it's supposed to be smooth and that it's actually rubber coated aluminum.

That's what I was thinking but I have no notches near me to compare to...just hatch cars.

Anyone swap in a repro? If so, fit was good?

Some 240 grit and some SEM trim black paint will make them look like new!

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.
