CA Bucket Seat Gas Tank Carpet Retainer Clips - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have 11 of them, but one has a crack in it. So, I will list them as 10 clips. There are 3 screws. $45 shipped. This is a hard-to-find item!

Hey Richard, the cool thing about these factory clips is that when the carpet has been hanging awhile it begins to sag between clips (like original) unlike the carpet staying straight like it does when you go the easy route and install with a straight bar.
Always appreciate you Paul

Thanks, Paul. Is that how you and Jason are installing the carpet on Jason's build?

Richard, for sure we will use the factory retainers. For a driver we would use a flat, solid length of metal which actually makes a cleaner and better looking install. most dont like how the carpet starts sagging between clips but for Jasons truck we will stay with my old saying "as it was not as we wish it was"
