Anyone sell SE/Gran Coupe overhead console attachment clips?
« on: August 10, 2008 - 01:41:02 PM »
 

Missing one (figures).  :banghead:

These are the clips that attach the console to the fiberboard headliner.

Don't have a picture, but here's basically how it works:
The console is pressed fiberboard shape with 4 metal retainers fastened into it.  The retainers are just like those found on the sail panels or rear shelf that the spring clips slide into. Instead of spring clips the console has the above pictured clips that slide into the slots in the retainers and the screws go up through the holes in the hardboard headliner.

I have an overhead console with all four clips in place destined for my Challenger; i'll post a pic Sunday. In the meantime here's an underneath reference shot of one (not mine) with the clips as well as he rear bracket in place :thumbsup:

Here's some bottom side reference pics from my green overhead console; including some showing the amount of material overlap there is :thumbsup:
