Thank you for help sourcing the last clip! I now have all except the final one in this video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YTD...w?usp=drivesdk


I found it on Jim’s auto parts site (I think) but he’s charging $24 a clip!!!!! Considering I need 25 of them I’m thinking there HAS to be a cheaper option.

Do you have a oe part #? You really need the oe part # or you will be just looking for something that looks the same. IF it's reproduced/nos that's the way to find it.

Keep in mind, hardware is hardware. Yes, trucks have different body parts like fenders. On simple stuff like clips and bolts,unless it a special bolt like a banjo bolt on brakes, bolts are bolts. They don't sell cars so the same bolt or clip is shared between ALL the vehicles built. Look at places that supply parts for A bodies and so on. I'll bet you'll find reproduction clips like you need.

I found these but think they are for the body panels that have the studs. Looked in my book and they list the oe part # of the trim pieces but no clips. I assume they came with them.
