There is a wooden block that goes under these trim pieces on a BT7. From pictures on the internet the blocks looks to be about 2" square. Is there a hole through the block for a self taping screw that goes though the block, through the quarter panel horizontal metal bracket and into the wheel arch? Are the three holes in aluminum trim piece just to secure it and none of them go through to the wheel arch? What are the dimensions of the wooden block and how it is installed?</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><img width=1198 height=899 style='width:12.475in;height:9.3666in' id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.jpg@01D6DC6B.BF89F870"><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Thanks...
