Factory stainless sunshades/visors - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a set of the factory stainless sunshades that mount to the top of the doors. (I don't know what they are actually called, but I can provide pics if needed.) They are stainless on the top and painted army green on the bottom. Does anybody have any clue how these mount? Does it require an impossible to find clip?

Vent shades that go at top of door so you can roll the window down a small amount so the truck can breathe when closed up or to keep rain out when going down the road...

Yes they are held in place with special clips ,I just bought a parts truck with these installed and I know I have a few sets of spring steel clips if I can find the right box'o parts .the clips are installed in the top of the window channel and the vent shades snap in place then you reinstall the window channel seal real easy . getting them out is the hard part .
