Re: Inner to outer rocker panel gap

The gap width dimension is secondary to how the rocker panel lines up with the door...That gap is simply for the dome light wire and for the rubber door weather stripping. What is critical is how the rocker panel lines up with the closed door...The gap averages 1/2" inch..."Jus Sayin"

Cool Re: Inner to outer rocker panel gap

Thanks for the help everyone. The door seems to be lining up good. I put some weatherstripping in the gap and and it also fits great. I just thought maybe the gap was a little too wide but according to everyone's feedback I should be good to go. Only 340 more cuts 1364 more welds and 38.5 hours to go before I'm finished....with this side.
