Upper Trim Install on Blazer
I am thinking about adding the upper trim to my Blazer. I've seen others do it, but am wondering about the piece of trim that goes on the rear quarters. Will the trim for a SWB pickup bed fit the rear Blazer quarter, or will I need to modify it (shorten or lengthen)? Thanks.

Re: Upper Trim Install on Blazer
You'd have to shorten either a LWB or a SWB piece, you could take off the the short piece on the end and then cut the long piece down, that way you'd have factory ends on both ends

Re: Upper Trim Install on Blazer
The PO installed the upper trim on mine. The rear trim piece has a joint about 6'' from the back resulting in 2 factory ends like teeitup said. The piece measures approx. 80" o.a.

Re: Upper Trim Install on Blazer
Thanks for the info guys. That was exactly what I needed to know. I'm glad to see that I can shorten the trim wthout leaving a "raw" edge.
