Default Window sills

left and right interior window trim.


It's up to you. If you are good at measurements, you can cut it
to go flush with the edges of the trim. If you are not too good,
then I would go with at least a 1/2" extension beyond the edge of
the trim so that if you screw up, you will still be covered.

I generally tend to stay at about 1/4" beyond the trim.
