Re: Any differences in side trim vendors?

You’re about 15 years older than me...that really ain’t much I remember when the USA was the manufacturing giant as well, and when that ceased to happen. My dad talked about it all the time in the 80’s, like he had a crystal ball It could have made a difference then, too late now, time to move on I used counterparts trim based on the real life experiences of a longtime member who did real comparisons too...with installations not just appearance out of the package. My trim fits great, if I recall correctly I had to “bow” the upper door pieces to conform and lay perfectly flat. No big deal, I don’t expect the part to mount itself without a little coaxing. I can’t justify paying $400 more for something that isn’t $400 “better”
