Here's a picture of wind lace. It is installed on the pinch weld to finish the headliner. It is also used on the pinch weld at the door opening.

Loren,
 Thank You for all the time and effort in responding to my post. I have the windlass trim like the pic you sent so all is well. I am interested in the dash, courtesy lights and trunk light. I will send you a pm. Also Thank You to Kieth for offering a pic of the trunk light. I will take you up on that. It will help with installation. One more thing. I have the vacuum power trunk set up for a full size Buick. The actuator that mounts on the latch will fit but the plunger is wrong. It has a flat mount. From the couple of pics that I have seen the one I need mounts with a 90 degree bracket. Anybody have one?
Thanks Again,
Lou

Thank You for the pics.
 I am assuming the switch for that light is below the drivers side hinge?

There is a mercury switch built into the light socket! So when the deck lid is opened and closed the motoin turns the light on and off automatically!
