And see the door on this '04:

Why does the lower one have that extra rib?
Was that an option for that model year?

There is not a second picture, but I think you are talking about the body side moldings. It was an option for most if not all the C5s. I think they are and I am glad I did not get them on mine.

Sorry, the 2nd picture doesn't show up as you said. It only works for me as it is in my cache. You are right, that is an additional molding strip. I thought maybe it came on a certain package.
Thanks.
