    Does any have or know where I can get a set of 70 trunk lid molding clips and screws? This is for the molding between the rear quarter panel extensions. I am looking for the original style, but if there are reproductions available, I might be willing to get them also. Please specify price if you have them or know of a company that sells the set. Thanks in advance for your help:Smarty:

    I bought a set a few years ago. Might have some surplus. The screws I used were a stainless 8-32 X 3/8", mushroom head.
    Go to: www.northlandfasteners.com
    Look at # N11607. This is what I believe I used.

    Tagged as a door item but I believe that's what I used. Memory fades a bit over time. Common fasteners were used on many different parts of the car.

    Sobair,
    Wheelz's clips are the right ones. Once I saw them I remembered what they were.
    I used the previous clip "somewhere" else on the car.
    Memory fade I think is turning into memory loss!

    Wheelz,

    What would you take for a set of the trunk lid clips?

    Ok Carl, I know that you and Wheelz are good friends, so is he going to sell those clips to you??? :puzzled:

    I think I have the screws in stainless....same threads, etc. The only difference would be the top of the screw head, around the phillips slots, would be rounded like a typical pan-head screw...no slight flat area around the phillips slots like the factory screws have (see Wheelz's pics).

    You can pm me if you have interest.

    Thanks
