66 big rear window trim
 
is there a trim piece that goes on the interior side of the rear window. mine doesn't have anything, but there are small holes all around the window where it looks like a trim piece would go. in looking on-line and in the catalogs, I don't see any interior trim piece available.

if it didn't, what are these holes for?

Thanks
Terry

Could me where snaps had been installed for creating a passage between the cab and a camper unit. We've heard of this occuring on other trucks.

P.S. GM reffered to it as Full View rear window. BBW is used by people who don't spend thousands on original literature. Lol

That’s probably from a camper boot I bet!

Interesting, I would have never thought about that. Would there have been snaps there or something?

was this something that would have been done at the factory, or previous owner?

I'll take some pics when I get back home Friday.

Not factory.
Previous owner or dealer where they purchased the camper unit.

Yes there were snaps like you would have seen on an old truck bed tonneau cover. The previous owner would have installed them Im not aware of the factory ever installing them. :flagw:
