Hey Chevynut, in a past life many years ago, I seem to remember you posting a picture of the oblong holes for the upper Belair trim on a 2 door sedan.
By any chance, do you still have any pictures? I would like to see the upper holes as well as the lower.
Currently I have the stock lower holes for the 210 beltline trim and am getting ready to install the complete Belair stainless.
What's your thoughts on cutting the oblong holes? Drill a hole at each outer edge and the rotary file to connect the holes?
Would like to see a picture of stock holes to see if all the holes are oblong, or a mix of oblong/round.
Appreciate your thoughts, as well as any others.
Thanks

Thanks, that pretty much was the only way I could figure out to do it. A slow process, but so is everything else!
