So you decided not to put it back on?..Not any more!

On this one the chrome is a chrome lock strip. Put a black lock strip because there will be no chrome to speak of.So you decided not to put it back on?..
Yes I'm asking because I'm dancing around all that right now myself.. I don't currently have all the correct clips. I'm almost positive there's two different kinds on the front.. which go where I don't have a clue.. the holes going across the top got covered during repairs but I'm sure just putting a old seal up there would let me know where they need to be... The glass shop is frowning on the Chrome lock strip as they say it cracks and looks ugly...On this one the chrome is a chrome lock strip.

I have the Chrome for the front and rear windshields and they're in good condition and I really wanted to put at least the gutter Chrome on... I did take the emblems off and had the holes covered. I do have Chrome mirrors chrome door handles bumpers probably Chrome wheel caps in the silver grill.. it's only emblem I might put on is the Power Wagon emblem up on the hood...
When I had the last conversation with the window guy that's kind of what I was saying... It would be kind of easy just to pull the old strip out and push a new one back in...It is true those chrome lock strips do rack but they last a quite a few years and they would be easy to change if they weren't too expensive!
