Default 1969 Camaro Door panel window wiper

I'm having Al Knoch redo my deluxe door panels for my 69 Camaro. My window wipers are too old & not pliable enough to reuse. The replacements I've seen, the "V" cross section is not a true "V". More like a check mark.

Is there a correct wiper for the deluxe door panel on the market?
Thank you, Joe

Joe, sorry can't offer anything - haven't researched that part of my in-progress restoration yet.

Missed again. He needs the INNER fuzzies, not the outer fuzzies.
Outers attach to the door frame.
Inners attach to the door panel.

Edit: Darrell beat me to it.

What sucks is I have a NOS set. Had them for years. Took them out of their sealed packages & they're hard as a rock. Elliot Knoch said mine would break if he tried to re-staple the originals.....Joe

What about just replacing the "fuzzy" material?

Boy Lee, not trying to be an arse, but this isn't your day. The part he needs runs the full lenght of the window attached to the door panel. Normally referred to as the inner fuzzy. Little different texture than the outer fuzzie, which also runs the full length of the window but attaches to the door frame.

Pictured here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/68-69-Camaro...9ZMIDO&vxp=mtr

As noted above, even an NOS set may have become very hard if not stored in a climate controlled environment.

The door adjuster ALSO has a fuzzy piece on it. That fuzzy piece is in the link you posted There are (I think) two to each front window. They attach to the door and allow adjustment of the angle of the window. That fuzzy pieces is only about an inch and a half on each adjuster.
