Upper trim molding clip question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can anyone tell me where to purchase this style of clip, these were on my front fenders of my truck. I would like to use these on the bedsides as well, I think they are easier to work with, and hold tighter.

I'm curious how well a plastic clip application would work over the original metal style retainer clips.

The metal clips have been denting aluminum taillight and tailgate trim for some during installation.
Could a plastic style clip instead of metal, apply for installing the tail light bezels and tailgate trim?

I am only familiar with the metal style (NOS and repo) but I did see these awhile back.

I have never seen the smaller ones like that.. I do like the big ones though. I emailed Lmc, figured that’s where they had come from but no dice..they emailed me pictures of all their styles. Brothers doesn’t show them either.

Follow the link on the fleabay site I posted.
The seller offered several different sizes.
Good luck.
