So, I carefully marked the trim when removed as to left, right etc. But I didn't note which side was top. For the long lower rear trim it is obvious because of the screw hole at the forward end. But the narrower one above it at the base of the fin could go either side up. I'm thinking the narrower part of the wedge shape would be up, like the lower trim, but it seems to fit better the other way. So which is correct??? The new wire clips don't seem to want to hold it on very well so will have to tweak them a bit I guess.

Never mind. Checked the one for the other side and I had noted "front" on it.

Darrell, if you are talking about the side trim, that trim IS installed counter-intuitively:

The thicker horizontal section of the side spear is installed upwards; just looking at that trim,
you'd think that that 'spear' would have its thicker section oriented facing downwards.
