help-72 burb upper trim - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am installing upper trim on my burb that did not have it originally. Can someone give me an idea of how many connectors to use for each piece of trim and what are your thoughts on using the plastic adhesive trim connectors?
Thanks
Bill

Bill not sure on this, but seems that I saw something in the factory assembly manual....I'm not sure how I feel about those adhesive trim connectors either....saw some on a truck one time and it seem to stick out too much...might of been bad installation

Both front doors have 4 push in clips and 2 screw clips each, the 3rd door has 5 push in clips, the driver's side rear piece has 14 push in, passenger rear has 10 push in and each rear corner has 2 push in.

Kinda off topic but where did you get your upper trim from?

picked up most of it here on the board from a member parting a burb listed in the parts section.
