Still Looking for Aluminum Transom Trim

thedink9 · #1 07-13-2004, 10:38 AM

I still haven't found the trim piece that caps the transom edge on the 23'. Taco has something called Aluminum transom trim P/N A50-0328TAL12D and it appears to measure 1.5" in length, so this may work, but the short edge is much longer than the piece I removed. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

I used aluminum channel from Home Depot. I waxed it just after putting it on....that was two years ago. It still looks almost new.

Plus, it only cost like $15. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Otto, these are the best shots I have of the trim. Sorry they aren't a little better.

OK, I have no clue why I can't get them to come up, so just paste the URL (less the image tags) into a new browser window. You'll get them there. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I also did the Home Depo thing.

That will be your best and fastest way to get it. I have bought it from them in the past as well

I'll stop at HD in the morning and see what they have.
I found a trim piece from Taco that I was about to settle for. problem was it was only 3/4" on its longest side and cost 50 bucks plus shipping. I was looking for something in the neighborhood of 1.5".

I did the home depot thing as well. Bought a peice of 1 3/4 angle aluminum stock and used a fine hack saw and a miter box to get the cuts where the ends meet. It's a pain, but it comes out ok if you take your time and measure your cuts carefully.
