I have a full set of side moldings, but no clips.
What do they look like, and how do they attach?

Thanks, I'd appreciate the effort if you get a chance.I have the same Val as you but the moldings are on the car. I've never had them off so no help. I don't have the car here but maybe I can take one off next weekend.
In the mean time, you might check with R/T Specialties as they seem to have the best clip selection.
Those look pretty close.
Looking closely these have a solid round tip on the "back" side opposite the spread tip. I expect it can be cut off.
OK, I get that, but I'm curious as to how the molding attaches to it once the clip is on the body.that solid round tip on the back is what you push flush with the retainer after it is installed into the hole to lock it in place.
Thanks, I sent him a message.Contact member Chained_360 for those clips.
I should have them Monday, I'll let you know!The trim expands just a bit to clip over the the widest points of the retainer, and then snaps on
They came today! Winner, winner, chicken dinner!Those look pretty close.
I need like 40 of them = $80!!!
Let me know if you get some & they work!
2 big swap meets happening here in a few weeks, gonna see what I can find.

Also this one appears to be the same, and you get 50 for $80.

I'm gonna order the second one and see if they will work, can always return.
I'll let you know.
That may be why some were off, but these are the ony clips I've come across that fit the molding, and I have no problem drilling a few extra holes if necessary. The molding is very secure on the body panel.I think some of the ends take a different clip, that may be the problem ? But then again, all my holes line up
