Cab trim

How does the trim that runs around the sides and back of the cab under the rear window stay attached. My Scottsdale never had it and I wanted to put some on.

Re: Cab trim

The rear piece slides over clips that are attached to the back of the cab itself, the side pieces then go on, are are bolted on from inside the cab.

It will not be real easy to install the rear clips, as there were studs welded to the back of the cab that the plastic clips attached to.

I suggest going to a JY, and taking apart a truck that has this setup...to determine if this is something you can do, or still want to do.

Re: Cab trim

you can use small rivets for the clips but you have to be very careful marking out the holes and all

Re: Cab trim

On second thought. I'll leave em off. I'll go with the lower side trim instead. Thanks guys
