    I just bought the qtr panel extension trim pieces NOS along with the trunk moulding. I need some pictures and or measurements on where to drill the holes to mount the trim. Now the upper two holes on the extensions will be not be any problem, but the lower hole Im not sure on. The mounting clip can be slid into the moulding and moved up or down. I would like to drill the holes in the exact same place that they are drilled at the factory. A picture of a qtr extension from the back removed from the car would be great if anyone has one lying around? Plus I would like some measurements to double check it before drilling. These are being mounted on Grabber flared extensions in case it make a difference. Here is a picture of the mouldings I am refering to.

    The car is currently at a body shop getting an extreme makeover. Totally rust free but far from dent free. It had small dings and dents in every panel. All of the body work is done except the right side door and right side qtr. Its getting a new paint job , original color. Im adding a rear grabber spoiler thanks to Craig S. The rear panel is getting a silver treatment instead of black. Not sure what to do with the hood though (stock). Probably wont be out of the shop until the end of March. I'll post pics when I get it back. I will be drilling the holes next weekend while Im at the shop glass beading the hell out of everything I can for repaints ( gotta love a glass beader ). I won't actully be adding any of the trim until it comes home though. Thanks again for the picture.
    Bob
