As far Chrysler parts that make up the content, I can only find the safety glass marked up as Chrysler specific but there must be something else!
Sure there is, all the body panels, hood hatch they look pretty specific, stamping Chrysler on a part does not make it the only Chrysler part on the car. I cannot recall any of my other cars body panels having the maker on it other than a few stuck on labels maybe for identification and they soon fell off.
