Location: Nebraska		Does anyone have pictures of what the trim clips look like that hold down the pieces at the bottom of the windshield and rear window on a sedan?

I also need to figure out a substitute for the roof trim clips. I know someone on here posted what they used once but I can't find the post again.

Thanks,
Todd

Maybe there's a solution for this old problem. A friend of mine (who is currently restoring a '58 Plymouth) told me that he found clips that will do the job after a little modification. They are too wide but if you cut them directly above the lower hole they will fit perfect.

They are made by Au-Ve-Co and originally for GM cars. Parts No. is 13924 (GM #10013153).

Yes, the clips are doing their job. As I mentioned in another thread, these are Auveco 13924 clips.

Now if anyone can show me the clips from the window trim that would be great.

Location: Clifton Springs, NY		I tried to purchase the Auveco clips direct and they only sell through distributors. The suppliers they recommended did not have stock. Where did you guys buy them from?
thanks!

Location: Newark, Texas (Fort Worth)		They are all freaking gone! I did a search by part number and no one has any left. I picked up nine from a box of 10 months ago. Marc. Search the Christine web sites.

These guys may have the windshield rear window clips,

Hit up all the auto body supply places in the area. Also try NAPA. The same clips may be sold by different manufacturers. So bring a picture when you go.

Location: Clifton Springs, NY		Found a couple of other clips that also have the ears on them to keep tension on the trim. I'll let you guys know if they work.
