HELP! Bath trim molding

I have attached pictures of the trim molding that was used in my 68 Trade Wind. I was careful removing most of it but several pieces were damaged before my purchase. As you can see, it consist of a bottom part that is screwed or riveted through and a top part that snaps on to cover the rivets. It is 3/4 in wide. I have looked everywhere for a similar product to replace this with and have not been able to find anything that is close. Any tips on where I can get this or any ideas on good alternative will be appreciated.

I believe this question was recently asked and Inland Andy responded by saying it isn't available anymore. You'll need to convert to the trim and insert nosing found in early 1970s models (like mine).

Bruce,

That trim was used up to at least 71 - in mine it snaps over an aluminum extrusion. We have looked everywhere - Airstream even let me go back in the warehouse and look. I've called several RV trim mfg. companies - no luck.

If you find it would you please report back where. Good luck....

The inside part looks a lot like "insert nosing" and the last time I checked Inland RV has it. I don't know if they have the extruded aluminum it snaps into.

I have removed the bathroom from my '67 Sovereign and I will look and see if I have any of the trim and offer it up.

1970 Safari with wet bathroom

I'm also looking for the same trim. Can anyone post a link or picture of the aluminum trim with vinyl insert? My wet bathroom is tiny with tight curves. I wonder if the aluminum trim would be pliable enough.
