As the title states, did GM make bolt on side moldings for an 84?
Pulled my truck apart yesterday to get it ready for paint and when I removed the tape on moldings on the bed there were holes at the ends of the pieces like you would use for bolt on style moldings but no holes or studs for clips in the middle. They were very clean holes not like someone drilled them.
All I see available are the tape on style.
Sorry didn't take a picture of them before dropping it off.

Yeah, the earlier ones had some type of stud or clip on the ends. I believe that was gone for '85 and the 100% stick-on mouldings superseeded the earlier ones.
