I'm going to install a set of original custom cab molding pieces on my '63 and need some input. It never had them and drilling the 3 holes inside door jamb and one behind cab is no problem. I understand that there were some kind of molding clips originally that went inside and snapped into holes in the side of the cab. Not really wanting to drill holes in the side of the cab and since no one repops those clips how would you do it? I have an idea of using some really good quality double sided molding tape. Have any of you done this? Where could I get the right thickness molding tape? Too thick and it'll stand away from the cab, too thin and it won't stick but to one or the other.

I don't want those extra holes either. When I mount mine I'm gonna try them without the clips...(others have said they will be fine)...but, I think I will find the correct thickness of weatherstripping (adhesive on one side), and stick that to the inside back of the trim. Should give it a little cushion if it does want to flap a little. We will see...

They stay on OK w/o the extra clips. I have an extra one for a pattern you can have if you want to use the clips, they are simply a strip of metal. Brian
