My paint guy who has handled escalades/tahoes/yukons alike say's that THIS window surround (off nnbs 07+ esky) -WILL INDEED- fit my Tahoe!!! Does anyone have any experience in this matter or possible done this mod? This would make my esky side view mirrors line up perfectly if so.

Is this what you were talking about the other day with the rubber not coming all the way up to the mirror and creating a gap or something?

Yea this would cover the gap basically. And make my pillars in between the front and rear doors black which I would LOVE.

Does your paint have one that you can mock up to validate the fit prior to doing it or is this just a pic of one he had and now you would have to find the parts in order to do the mod?

This is a pic I found of what it looks like and my paint guy just told me it would fit because they have the same door frame shape and this just lays on top of it. I'm trying to get a hold of one of these window surround mouldings to find out.

I gotcha. That is going to be an awesome mod once you find the part # so that you can order it. That'll really finished it off nice! :waytogo:

For sure. Plus my new esky mirrors have the window part of the mirror gloss black (Retained how the esky keeps it...STOCK) versus my all white painted version that I currently have on my vehicle. So IF the window trim does fit, the gloss black pillars (along with the gloss black on the mirror/window side) will make my front and rear windows flow real nicely with my matched tint in the front (Thanks for the idea Zach!!) :Handshake:

The rear doors on the escalades have a different shape around the window. Look at the rear bottom part of the window frame on yours, it's "round" while the escalades is "flat"

The whole door on the escalades is different then the tahoes with the window frame being different and then the escalades have a very small body line right above the molding.

Look at your sig picture for the tahoe doors.
