850 (Base) Advice on Roof Trim/Molding

Post by jotoya »

Hello,

I am hoping I can get some guidance.

As parts for these 850s continue to dwindle, finding something that will work becomes quite the chore. I've attached a picture of the driver side roof trim/molding and since these are no longer available, I found the following in Amazon and was wondering if anyone has experience with it or something similar:

Many thanks.

Never seen that before. Looks interesting as the roof trims are hard to find, even used.

If you decide to try it let us know how it works out please.
