Where do these go? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Been going through my bags of small parts trying to figure out where they go. Figured I’d start a thread so I can post pics that you guys could help me identify.

Thanks!!!

Here’s the first batch

Those might be the clips that attach the antenna cable to the inside of the dash underneath the glovebox.

That seams feasible and Ill have to say that was pretty amazing coming up with that.

**pjmoreland** · 10-12-2022, 02:34 PM

Here are a couple of low quality photos of those clips on a dash I installed in my truck a couple of years ago.

Who knew these even existed? No signs of them on my poor old Burban

**pjmoreland** · 10-12-2022, 05:20 PM

My truck didn't have them originally either, although it didn't have a radio either, so that makes sense.

I knew that was a quarter

bwahaha!!!!

Aw crap. Now I have to find and buy clips. Just can't leave things lay where they are! Don't know whether or not I'm happy you brought this up. Time will tell if I get stuck under there.

In Avionics school they taught us to use waxed thread to loom wires up inside the fuselage or under the instrument panel. Later I used Zip ties, aka ''cable ties.''

My Orange Stepside had no AM or AM/FM radio originally. It did have either a stubby roof antenna [VHF comm] or an Amber Gumball Machine. The tracks where HD cable clamps were screwed to the inside cab are still visable. And a big rubber grommet over a 1/2'' hole. I've never messed with it, and it doesn't leak.

So far Ive been doing pretty good figuring out where my misc clips and such go, but I found this bag today. Not even sure if they go on our trucks ... any ideas?

Sweet, thanks. I just happen to have some of those door vent shades. But they weren't in the same tote, they will be soon.
