Roof drip rail moulding cap

I have a Sierra Grande that doesn't have it, and while I've heard they were tried in 73+ and sucked, I thought our trucks never had them.

But in the parts book I see Section 16.642 has them. Left, right, same for 67-72.

Anyone know the story? I've never seen them, but they might be a nice touch if they actually exist.

As far as I know, a factory option in 69. Discontinued after because it sucked as well and was often riveted in place. Boardmember Jeremiah King has it on his 69 and is the only original I've seen in person. 71Super (Harold) has a lot of info on it I believe.

This is pretty much as far as I went looking into it. Didn't seem to be much interest then.
