I believe your talking about the trim for the two tone paint break around the back of the cab. I took my passenger side piece off to give you some reference. Took a couple of pics and here you go. I will leave the trim off until this weekend if you need a better picture or measurement than this. Hope this helps you.

Your welcome. That trim is a tiny bit below the drip rail trim when you look straight on at it but not much. Good luck

I believe the height of the curved trim will be determined by the placement of the piece that goes under the rear window. It has to clear that body line below the gasket.
Cheeto It's not perfect. It's not correct. It's not yours!
