Left one holds the bedside CST panel, on the right is the hold down strip for a single wall top.

Okay.Thanks.My blazer is a cst with a double wall top.I have a single wall to go on it but I want to have inner interior panels.Will the trim on the right hold the panels?

No, it sets on top and the bolts go down through it through the top and into the bedrail. Factory single wall top blazers had cage nuts under the bedrail to bolt the top down. I have a set of cage nuts for sale if interested let me know I can find the link.

Thanks for the offer but my blazer came with a couple of unicorns.The previous owner bought factory GM replacement quarter panels thirty years ago and had them in storage since I got it.Im pretty sure I noticed it had the bolts in it

Ok, I know what blazer you have, did you just buy it recently. I saw it posted on craigslist with the NOS quarters, wasn't it 2 blazers?
