Default Wagoneer mouldings, how to ?

I am doing a full restoration of a 1987 wagoneer. (I did open a proper topic for it in the build section).

Moulding around the wood vinyl are not well attached to the car.
I didn’t find any info on the Haynes repair manual.

Does someone have good advices.

- what clips to buy
- how to install them ? Are they just clipped (plastic) or are they bolted from the inside of the panels, so I have to dismantle doors, etc)
- what vinyl to cover the mouldings. They are a bit yellow. Are they supposed to be wrapped by vinyl aswell ?

thanks

raphael

I did read many times this thread.

Crist is the one who boosted my motivation to start the project.

The job he did is simply awesome.

I also expect a beautifull result but might not go as far as he did…

Crist, your knowledge will be appreciated.
