Adding "Custom Cab" Bling

Hey everyone!

Has anyone added the door trim to their door that did not have it originally?

I bought a set of trim for my doors, but my custom cab did not come with that, or the door sill plates (350... so battery is in floor and that's why) and also did not have the trim around the door, or bezel around the switches.

Was just wondering how hard it is to get the holes lined up to drill new holes for the trim on the door.

Merry Christmas to all... going to be 62 here in CT for Christmas, certainly bizarre

My truck all ready has it but what I would do is run a wide strip of tape down the side where the trim will go. Hold or tape the trim piece in place and trace a line above and below the trim piece. Remove the trim piece then make a center line between the two lines you just made. That line is where the holes go
