I have had these for 15 years, and not even sure why as I never had an interior this color. In any case, they are not a matched pair. I believe one is NOS and one is repro, especially given the different color stitching. Please look at the pictures closely. Neither have any wear at all. 195. and will include full set of hardware, or B.O.

I believe they are both NOS. I’ve had a number of these door ‘pull’ straps in the past ( in white, black and red / maroon ) and surprisingly, even though they look very similar ( often confused with reproduction ) it’s because in the 1969 - 1971 period they came with two different part numbers, a C9VY or a C9MY prefix. I’d have to search through my stash to confirm which is which. But I believe the ones with the blunted ends ( where the mounting screw goes through ) are the C9MY version, and the ‘pointy’ ended ones are the C9VY type ( I’m pretty sure those were the ones used on the Cougar ). The stitching was slightly different , less raised and less prominent on one vs. the other. As well one was more maroon ( and slightly narrower in the center ) and the other has an ( almost ) metallic sheen to it, and it is slightly wider in the center. If I recall the over-all quality of the stitching ( esp. near the ends ) on the service parts left a lot to be desired compared to the original assembly line quality.
Thank you for the input. If both NOS, should help someone with their build or redo.
