I'm wondering if anyone has ran into this problem before. If so, what did you do? I'm getting ready to reinstall the windshield and rear glass, but only abot 30 of my trim clips are reuseable, so I need 12 more. It seems the 68 clips are different than everything else. They measure just under 1/2" wide while all the other A body clips are just under 5/8". I've been told that the wider will not fit and hold properly. The narrower ones are not available anywhere. Does anyone know if there are repro's of the narrow clips? If not I guess I'm stuck tracking down used ones. I can't believe they're different from all the other ones  |

At least here in Brasil the wide clip goes in the windshield and the narrower ones goes in the rear glass. but there are more than 2 sizes and they do vary in height too, and it is more important than width.

Thanks guys. I called Restoration Specialties and have some on the way. They appear right from the picture in the catalog. The front and rear are supposed to be different I've been told, but the Valiant had all the same front and rear. 95% of the clips I've looked at are are 1/8" too talland and are supposed to be the right ones. I think these are going to be right though. I've should have looked into this issue way earlier in the project because I want to have the Valiant on the road in 3 weeks, and this was he last thing holding up the project. So we should be good to go now. Matt
