Gary,
Hi. I have used them a few times before for other cars, but not the Caddy. A little pricey, but top shelf stuff. Perfect fit, real nice quality, and nice people to deal with.  I've thrown some other vendors stuff (garbage) away. You get what you pay for. Hope this helps!

It looks to me like the Quiet ride and the California Pontiac Restoration  are the same thing. No problem with that but they seem to be model specific?  They both mention series 61, 62, and 75.  and my car is a series 67.  I need to find out if they are the same or different??

This is one of those things I should have done earlier because they are 3 to 6 weeks out.  I remember looking at them a few weeks ago and their ambiguity about models kind of scared me away.  I can keep busy elsewhere on the car for that period of time but could not deal with getting the wrong pad.

Gary,
If I'm not mistaken, they're made to order. Think I ran across the same issue with the lead time.

Cadillac did a lot of sheet metal interchange between the models in these years.  In group number "35.0005 Cowl Assembly (body front end)" The same part number is shown for 42-61,63 and 67, 46-61 : 47-61.  The insulating pad should interchange then also.  I don't find the group number for the insulating pad to check directly.
