    I can't seem to get your PM to show, but I believe you were asking about the trim strip that separates the carpet from the steel at the back of the cab. That is a relatively simple home-made piece...I used 3/16" X 2 aluminum flat bar, drilled for sheet metal screws in 5 or 6 places, and rolled on the ends to wrap around the cab contour. I polished it out with a mulit-step polish system on a 4-1/2" disc grinder, finishing it out with a wool pad and rouge to attain a chrome-like finish. Seemed to work just fine for trimming off like I was wanting...
