Trimming Frameless Windows

[CREATIVERS]

I am in the process of totally renovating the interior of my '73 23'. I have installed one frameless window, the large one.
The window comes with a metal strip the wraps the entire inside of the window, sucking the window in tight. But there are no channels for connecting
any kind of finish material to hide the edges of the interior wall board.
Those of you who have stalled frameless windows, do you use the old straight plates, along with the old slide on trim, that covers the edges of the
interior wall board? Or do you use the wrap-around fasteners that came with it? In which case, how do you make the interior wall-board edges pretty?

I have not changed my windows - but what I have considered and believe others have done is cut new wall panels large enough to cover the window edges
and then use Trimlok to edge the new panels.
Jim Bounds at the Coop may use this method and often posts interior progress photos.

Jim sells trimlock with a 3/8" or so bulb attached that finished it very
nicely.

I am in the process of totally renovating the interior of my '73 23'. I have
installed one frameless window, the large one.
The window comes with a metal strip the wraps the entire inside of the
window, sucking the window in tight. But there are no channels for
connecting
any kind of finish material to hide the edges of the interior wall board.
Those of you who have stalled frameless windows, do you use the old straight
plates, along with the old slide on trim, that covers the edges of the
interior wall board? Or do you use the wrap-around fasteners that came with
it? In which case, how do you make the interior wall-board edges pretty?
