Abstract
A modular molding system is provided for mounting at a wall-ceiling interface in a structure, such as an RV, and around a window opening in the structure. The system includes a mounting component and a trim component removable mountable to the mounting component. The mounting component is configured in one embodiment to be mounted to the wall-ceiling interface and in another embodiment to be mounted around a window opening. The molding system includes a functional component separate from the function of the molding system. In one embodiment, the functional component is an LED lighting strip and, in another embodiment, the functional component is a guide channel for a screen or sunshade of a window valence. A snap-fit engagement is provided between the mounting component and the trim component. The mounting component and the trim component are extruded plastic so that that the components can be cut to size as desired.
