I have them NOS, for anyone needing them. PM me or es179@efirehose.net My file picture is too large to post, if someone can help, I can send the picture to them and they can post it. These are used for the stainless door trim and the stainless trim under each quarter window on a hardtop.

Is there a trick or proper procedure for removing these clips from the door? I think they are very difficult to remove and I end up with about half broken clips.

With the glass removed they can be easily & safely removed by using a length of 1/4" ID tubing from below the clip, slip it up onto the expanded clip till it compresses the wings & the clip will pop out of the hole.... Start at one end of the molding & lightly pry up as you pop the clips going down the row....

1 Wild,,,,thanks,,,,I was not familiar with the cuda clips,,,
Starting to wish i had the body guy fill in the holes on the tops of the doors....

Might have to just drill them as you suggest,,, thanks !!! :2thumbs:

I ended up welding mine up,we have a Gran Coupe similar trim, as I could not find proper clips,and I was going to use automotive 3m double sided tape to put them on, but I never did that either,I like the smooth look of the doors anyway
