will wait for testimonials first. Will you listen to the testimonials if they are bad? Every time you complain about your lower interior panels...... I think to myself.... "I told you so"

Yes I know, but they were really a need! Painted panels don't hold a driver friction. I'm still hoping a decent used white set or good repros ( yeah, right! ). I got at least the newer and nice seatbacks panels being made... of course they are the same than E body pieces!

We (73-74 owners) have arrived!!!! I got my pre-order in already I wonder who lobbied OER for these? One of us I presume? In the latest edition of Classic Industries catalog, they are now for sale...$99 No longer on pre-order. That would mean class115 got their ones, which is likely... not ( same as a guy at FBBO )

Just ordered a pair on July 9th...backorder of course. I'll post when they arrive. So, I just received my new pair of Headlight Fillers for my 73 Charger...First off, they are made of plastic, not the rubbery compound from the originals. Second, when installed, my grille won't go all the way down to the plastic nut plate - there is a gap and that translates to the grill not sitting below (inside) the bumper correctly. Looks like I either need to see if my headlights can screw in any more or trim the fillers.

Woah! Plastic? That wasn't said by the guy at FBBO.
And the description at CI it clearly says "urethane just like the original factory item"!

Yes, they are made of plastic, hard plastic...I was finally able to get them mounted by starting the outboard screws first and then pushing on the plastic grille as hard as I could to get the plastic grille openings around the chrome headlight retainer that holds the headlight in place...I tried to lubricate it some to help it, but didn't do much good. Finally I got the 2 outboard screws to go almost all the way down to the plastic nut and then I screwed in the 2 middle screws. Finally able to get the remaining inboard screws in as well. Looks good, but I don't want to remove the grille now - too much work..!

Well, on FBBO the opinions are opposite and happy. They say are urethane, just maybe a bit harder than maybe they could expect, but not hard plastic

To let you know I figured out why my headlight grills were not fitting - after several hours of not getting them to fit I gave it a 2 week rest and when I came back I decided to try the left one on the right side and it fit like a glove. Other side went on no problem as well. They come in a plastic bag with the words LT and RT written on them. So, if you get a pair and have a hard time, swap them..!
