After some advice please.

Recently bought some shower panels to have installed. However the installers must have missed installing the waterproof trim I bought as didn't use it? How much of a problem is this?

I was told by another installer that it should be used as external seals are no where near as good and will just lead to problems down the line. Am I worriying about nothing or do I need to take the panels off to put the trim on.

TIA
 
I’m guessing here you mean the internal corners ?

If yes there rubbish and I agree don’t need / use them
 
Definitely not worrying about nothing. The waterproof trim is important to prevent water damage. I'd recommend getting it installed, as external seals might not be as effective. You might want to discuss this with the installers and see if it can be added without taking the panels off. Better safe than sorry.
