Re: $459 for rear CST side panels?

This is a long overdue response as it's been a while since I've visited. For anyone looking for this information, the repop panels sit on top of the B and C pillar. The panels tuck up into the chrome trim located on the bed sill (where the roof bolts on).

Re: $459 for rear CST side panels?

Did you have to purchase a box of 100 screws? Did the screws work fine?

Re: $459 for rear CST side panels?

Yes, the minimum purchase qty was 100 so I bought a box. If I counted correctly based on the photos provided, it looks like each panel will require 16 screws, so 32 screws in total if installing the screws in both panels.

I have not built up the courage to drill through the panels to install the screws, yet.

Exclamation Re: $459 for rear CST side panels?

I would not drill the panels, as the bit will grab and tear up the vinyl. The holes on the cardboard backing on my panels made by PUI were pre-punched. I used an old pencil tipped soldering iron to make the holes for the mounting screws.
