    Hey guys/ gals. So I got my prinsu rack in, and long story short, the OD of my drill bit for drilling the holes for the spacers was closer to 7/8 than 3/4 so they fit in a little loose. Should I be worried about this? Thanks in advance!

    My understanding was that there was no drilling required.

    The holes in the roof mouldings aren't very important, I stopped running the mouldings after I took it off once.

    He's taking about for the rubber trim insert. Not metal. It's what current covers the holes

    Use black silicone and your holes will blend in. Don’t skimp on it though, you dont want water to get in the holes.

    Awesome. Thanks for the info guys! I did use about half a tube so I should be covered. I'll report back if I've got any leaks
