How hard is it to find rocker panels for the 1985 Cutlass? How do they attach to a car without rockers currently?
CUTLASS Rocker Panels?

I was under the impression they had plastic clips. But not sure how they attach to the body itself and if holes must be drilled and so fourth?
I have seen some aftermarket ones that are beveled stainless and use 3m double sided tape to attach. Wonder if those are any good?

Do you mean the BX2 trim that goes to the bottom of the door? Or actual rocker moldings?
Actual rockers. I am going to keep those fender trims that are shorter from the BX2 option but want to add the stainless rockers. The wide peices that run the full body length and would meet at the end of the BX2 fender trim.
Car as I have it now but would love to add them.

Thank you. In researching, I came across that. So if a car doesn't have them factory (i.e. no tabs welded on for the clips), no real easy way of installing them unless I went with the stainless ones that have 3m double sided tape as after market it sounds like.
Qmi makes a set that if you order from them shipped is around $350 shipped with all 10 pieces. It is a beveled edge stainless set that use 3m double sided tape to stick them. Anyone ever used these or have opinions on them?

They sell screws that take the place of the studs used for window molding. They could probably be used to hold the rocker clips
