Brumby tailgate end caps q?

Post by dfoyl » Sun Jun 12, 2016 9:22 am

A few months back someone here said the Brumby tailgate and bed trim end caps were the same - I found a spare set of the tailgate caps and I don't believe this is correct :

Anyone have a photo of the bed trim caps ?

might be like when the XE Falcon sedan came out - some old fart told me they were the same mould as the Mercedes of the day ! Bwahahaha :D

Sorry I missed your earlier request for info ... :neutral:

Some pictures :

Noted that they are different, but you can still use the side end cap on the tray as the profile is the same, just shorter.

Also have the clip for trim screws :

P.S. - I'm still working on 3D replacements for these & will post them up when done ... :)
( It might take a while though, as have a backload of other bits to do ... )

Cheers, Bantum ...
