FB interior door pull differences
 
hi guys,
trying to figure out if there is a difference between the interior door pulls of an FB with manual or power windows. I am assuming no since the power window switch is in the center console but please correct me if I'm wrong.

reason I ask is that I need a passenger side pull (gray color and I do have power windows) and need to make sure I look for the right one. let me know if u do have a clean one u don't mind parting with also. thanks.

if you have a non power window and are buying a powered window them yes your fine but not the other way around. unless you like gaping holes where knobs used to be. lol i

If the arm is what you're talking about:

Then Mazdatrix has a different part number for w/ and w/o PW.

w/ PW

Cart Price Check Part:69-385A-FA56-11

w/o PW

Cart Price Check Part:69-391A-FA01-12

You may be able to look at a parts catalog, or Black Dragon, and get a visualization of what's different, or someone on here will be able to get you specifics.

i know 84-85 had different door panels and pulls for power vs manual windows.

i think 81-83 had the same for both, and its the same door pulls (in different colors) as the 84-85 manual window

yes donnie, it's that arm (for the passenger side in my case) that i need.

thanks so i guess i'm stuck in finding the arm from an 84-85 FB with power windows. much appreciated.

Why not just have the switches in the center console? At least as a temporary solution.

looking at the blackdragon catalog, it looks like i need the top one (without power windows which to me is odd cause i have power windows but the control is in the center console):

The 84-85 cars without power windows have that first door pull as well, but they don't have the that little cup on the arm rest portion.

That page is wrong in my opinion, as both doors seem to use that top pull, and the bottom one would be used for God only knows which cars... Really interested in this now as the only ones I've seen use the first one and I've seen over 10 FB's 84 and 85 model years now.. huh.

ok, i did some pic searching on the for sale forum and this is what i've come up with...my door panels were probably taken from a non-power window car (and probably reuphostered, thus no manual window hole). all the 84-85 GSL-SE cars that i found pics of used the bottom door handle from black dragon's catalog page.

i agree. you need an 84-85 manual door pull in grey.
