Are you talking about the polished aluminum trim that wraps around the upper window frames?

Default Post Car Door Trim

We installed the four pieces on the driver's side door (starting with the bottom belt line molding) counter-clockwise - clockwise when facing the passenger side door.

Brad's video is extremely helpful - especially on the removal side - however contrary to his sequence we had to install ours differently. In his video he states the pillar trim and forward trim have to be installed before the top trim (note the belt line molding is already installed. you can see this at point 3:25 in the video) We had three pieces of forward trim and each piece was 'hooked' larger that the top trim and had to be installed over the top trim. This makes sense to me aerodynamically as well - air does not get behind the top trim when traveling down the road. One thing to note is that he is working on a '64 and mine is a '65 - not sure if that made any difference of not but it might have. Eric
