Wanted...65 Skylark belt trim molding clips...
« on: November 24, 2018, 12:35:36 AM »
I am looking for clips to install the trim that runs down the center of the door and the rear quarter.
I have bought 3 sets already, and none of them work...
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Two different types were used! Does your car use the clips for weld on pins or the push in for punched holes? I may have some of both but would have to see how many I have as it takes several! The clips that go on the ends of the door trim and the end of the quarter spears are unique butterfly with inserts for screws!

My car has the holes in the quarter panel.
The butterfly end clips are still good.
I need 18, of the push in clips, to reinstall the two rear quarter trim pieces.
The last batch I got, looked good. They fit perfect in the trim itself.
However, when pushed into the panel, they just fell right back out....
A poor repop....
