There are a few pieces needed to make a complete kit.  In addition to the side panels, there are two rain gutter extensions for both sides, there are four trim covers for the screw holes.  Two for the back near the hatch and two for the sides, near the doors.  The rear ones are typically body color.  The side ones are typically grey.  On the inside there are carpeted trim pieces for both sides.  There is also a plastic ring that trims out the carpet over the port hole.  To mount the side panels, there are some special brackets that are spot welded to the window frames in order for the carpet panel clips to hold.  I will take some pics of some of these pieces from my factory car if you like.

Here are some pics for you.  I did not remove the interior panels for fear of damaging them but maybe someone else has theirs apart that they can take pics for you.  Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for the pics.... They helped me understand how it goes together.
I have a few more questions.
I assume the screws holding the panels on are under the trim.
Is the trim snapped into place?
Also, How many screws are holding the interior panel on?

Thanks again for the pics.

Thanks for the info..
I think I know how everything goes.

tigger do you know of a source for the chrome inset around the porthole windows ? Mine are shirveled and shrunk.

I may have an answer to this!!

If you are talking about the chrome that goes around the porthole but in the middle of the rubber, my son is looking into a price for it! He can get it. I will be letting you all know once he gets back to me. He is also checking to see if he can get new rubber for around the portholes.

Just a side note. He suggest that we use black insted of chrome. He says that chrome stuff he can get, will fade to a gold color when left in the sun for long periods! I am going to switch all my chrome trim (in the window rubbers) to black when I get ready to do my cruison wagon project!


I have a seperate question on the trim pieces on the outside. How are those snapped on? Are they held on like the side molding, with clips? I will be needing to do something with mine eventually. I don't have those pieces so I may have to be creative and make something!!

What are the dimensions of the bottom of the brackets that the interior panels clip to?

The moldings are attached via adhesive.  I used silcone to reattach the rear trim pieces on my car as they were loose when I bought it.  It has been 3 years since I put them back on and they are holding just fine.

Thanks!

BTW, how much of a dogleg bend is in those?
