Also note: I have seen two different shaft lengths on these knobs. You should take one of yours off the car and measure from the back of the knob to the end of the shaft - then make sure whatever you buy matches. My '74 GTV uses the short version, but I once mistakenly picked up a nice looking set as replacements only to find out they were long shank and sat about 1/2" out from the door panel, so I sold them on Ebay. If I recall correctly, one version has about 1/2" shank and the other about 3/4".

New repros, or good condition used ones? I have had some great dealings with Chris at Highwood in the past, and wouldn't hesitate to send him some more of my money if he could get me good vent window knobs. I need the short shank version.
