A PILLAR GUTTER TRIM FITTING

Yes mate the original ones do I wonder if anyone else as ordered these off werks34.de as they say I have to cut them down and bend the tops over myself not sure if they should slide on or push over either way there really tight to fit

Hello mate, been in the garage and found the offending item, I'm not one to cause friction but I'm not sure if the original trim would have been bonded on as they seem to have a core of stainless running through them ( which would explain why it's a b**ch to fit ) I'll pull my old ones of later and let you know. Anyway here's some pics, sorry if the stainless is hard to see, iPhone 5 lol

Yes mate I can see the metal on mine under plastic couldn't work out if it was stainless or ally my old ones did have a adhesive on

Ok cool so do the new one's have metal inside? If so heating them won't help I wouldn't have thought. I'm only guessing at stainless as a magnet doesn't stick.its only a guess but I would think looking at the shape at the top you start there which will open it up and then squeeze it on down the pillar arriving at the bottom if that makes any sense. I'm out at the moment but when I get home I'll give it a try and let you know

Yes mate mine have the metal in ok cool let me know how you get on dude

Personally I have never seen metal inserts on these, well over here that is, they are all plastic….

Could be that the channel has been collapsed a wee bit.

I have replaced tops on 80-93 cabbies, and never ever seen metal ones…..

Just metal inside the plastic

Although if it's stainless and you could remove the black plastic and give them a polish .. that could look jazzy
