Default BSM instructions
Does anyone out there have any information or where I can find instructions for installing body side moldings for a C5?

Thanks,

Ted

BSM install from another member.

Bottom edge of door to bottom edge of BSM
Front 10-5/8" (27centimeters)
Rear 9-7/16 (24centimeters)
Front edge of door to edge of BSM 1/4" + (Better bigger than smaller)
Rear edge of door to tip of BSM 1/8"

I think I would do a layout line and check it for level on my own car before I attached it permanently.
And the layout line should be the center if the BSM
You all know they're tapered.
