West,
I don't think the trim piece shoud be that flat. Is it possible it was accidentally flattened? If it was, the intended means of retaining it on the bucket may no longer be strong eoungh to hold. I recall learning of the senstivity of this design relative to the cast pieces of other models. THe sequence of assmbly may be to insert the clips into the trim, then the assembly onto the bucket.

Do they both look this flat? SOunds like we need to get together (that's the good thing about living so close).

I think I hear an excuse to fire up the 39!
