Mystery items found inside door panels... important?


Warty

Recommended Posts

I am re-skinning the doors of my 1970 240Z, putting them back to blue. When I removed the door cards, I checked to see how much rust could be found inside the cavity of the doors (luckily: none, except some very light surface rust inside the very very front of the passenger door. Also at the very very front there, was a lot of stuff. Washers, bits of old clip cups, etc. But these 2 white mystery disks... Anybody know what these are?

ah. Found this on eBay, the little disk assembly at the end of the arms?

The 2 disks I found don't have those lips, but the clearer plastic piece could easily be that cup-like thing. 

I'm not sure I've ever opened the passenger door window, where I found these. I'll give that a try tomorrow.

I couldn't see the relevant parts of the arms with the door closed up, but the good news is that the window action is very smooth, fully retracted to full extended. I will probably let sleeping dogs lie in this case...
