Trunk extension / end cap question

Post by phatdak18 » Thu Sep 15, 2016 8:25 am

After installing mini tubs, i have decided to replace the trunk floor and extensions after all. My floor really ain't too bad, but the extensions are nearly gone from underneath. I bought all my pieces from AMD...floor, extensions and trunk extension end caps (as they are referred to).

My question is, where are these end cap located?? I do not see them on my car (probably because they rotted away ages ago). Neither my 71 or 72 Body service manuals show an exploded view of the trunks sheet metal components. Maybe someone has a diagram in a parts book??

let me know guys. thanx!
