Re: Installing Deluxe trim on cab
Just today I took all the clips off my stainless. Took some pictures too. I've counted the rusty images on the back of the trim and I count 42 spots plus 2 spots for the figure 8 clips plus 2 more spots for the bolt clips that hold the trim on the door(s) for a total of 48 spots.
For what it's worth, here are some pictures.

Re: Installing Deluxe trim on cab
I bought a taped together bundle of stainless. enough to do 3 trucks for $35 at a swap meet.
all the clips were in a plastic bag. sadly, none of the stainless is perfect, but I used a small rubber hammer and some tongue depressors taped together to massage some of them back to almost normal If you didnt look at the other side of the truck, you would think they were perfect.

Re: Installing Deluxe trim on cab
Reviving this thread.
I tried the aftermarket ones and they are a far cry from the original. Does anybody have any good originals?

Buy a bag of clips from Bills Trucks up here in Canada. He also sells the trim and it comes with clips, but they blow, and the clips they sell in a baggy are perfect. PM me for more info. I’m lucky to live five mins from that shop ![]() |

Re: Installing Deluxe trim on cab
I bought the ones from Bill's too, and they worked perfectly.
