Where does one find the 2" stick on molding for the belt line?
Thank you.

Jim Bounds at the GMC Coop in Orlando has a kit that has the pre-cut molding. if you are more of a do-it-yourselfer, do a search for auto trim moldings and there are sites where you can buy the bare moldings in various lengths or in long rolls.

There are a variety of profiles available, but I seem to remember that you either had to buy a full roll, or the cut lengths were too short for our use. I lost the supplier's site when my old computer crashed, but I'll post it if I can locate it again.

Bob ordered two rolls from J. C. Whitney. It was wider than needed, so he
trimmed it, using the groove at the correct width. Worked very well. Used
super glue.

I sourced the side mouldings for my coach from my local Canadian Tire (it was in stock on display), it took 3 rolls to do my 23'@ $25 a roll and it looks identical to the OEM mouldings.

They are made by Cowles Products of New Haven CT and are sold under their Style Guard range.

The product number is T4802C 41-9367-6 2"X 18'Truck/Van Moulding Black.

Here is a link to their website:-

The material Topeka Graphics gets to replace it on a repaint is perfect.

Do it right and get the kit with the rectangular hole cut out to fit
the marker light.
Yes, you save by going the lesser route and it shows the cheap appearance.
Jim B supplies us them as we want these appearance parts to look proper.
