Hi all.
Thought I would share a tip to anyone who's going to be fitting deluxe waistline trim to a bus which has never had it fitted before.
Instead of drilling loads of holes and possibly using crap plastic trim clips, I stuck mine on with double sided tape.
It looks spot on and the tape also serves as a seal and stops the water collecting behind the trim..if you ever get your bus wet.
I used 25mm 3m vhb (very heavy bond) which is a perfect width and I warmed the tape before fitting, which helps it to adhere better.
You will need to make sure the edges of the trim are nice and straight for the tape to get a good bond and you get the trim level first time. When it goes on, it ain't coming off again!
