Slowly, but coming along. Every so often parts fit ends up giving me fits. The aluminum trim around the passenger compartment is one such problem. The aluminum trim straps all have different numbers on the inside, so I know they come from different cars. In the case of all four pieces, the through holes for the mounting screws do not line up with the holes in the body. The hole in the body is like an 1/8th of an inch higher than the holes in the aluminum trim. I don't get it. Am I missing something here?<div dir="auto">Mike MacLean</div></div>
