Carpet trim

Is there metal trim for the carpet edges by the door, above the step well? Or is carpet normally finished some other way ?

Re: Carpet trim

That would be the straight long side, still need the 2 short at a right angle to that one. Did they ever come that way? I guess most never had carpet.

carpet was never an option in these work trucks, not even the cameo had carpet
ogre was never a fan of metal strips with 10 screws holding carpet down
i sewed edging on carpet and wrapped it over the step well an inch
these pics show my seat pedestals, but you see the (dirty) carpet treatment in front
it has held up very well going on 10 years
