Belt Molding clips

Hi all,

I need the belt molding clips for my 55 Oldsmobile S88 4 door sedan. Anyone know what they look like and where I can get them? I have know reference, so I really don't know what kind of clip am i looking for. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanx

NAPA has a book that has pictures to pick from.

 

Yeah, but I don't even have a reference. I know that it is a push in type clip, unless Napa's catalog says it is for my car and that particular trim. I will have to check it out.

 

Most paint and body shop supply stores have hundreds of different types of trim clips,,just take a piece of the trim with you and see what will fit,,there is a lot of butterfly clips that are push in and some that have threaded ends that attach with nuts.

I was able to find all the pieces to reattach all the trim on our wagon and saved hundreds of dollars using universal clips instead of ordering over priced original reproduction clips. HRP

 

you can certainly measure the width of your trim piece..Au-ve-co
makes all types of these clips...either push in or bolt in

 

Ok HRP, thanks. Ima hit the local body shop supply and see what can be done. Take trim and car all at once. No back and forth, thank you HRP and dirt t.

 

wbrw32, thank you. Ima try to hit the local autobody supply place first and if that doesn't work out call up auveco. I think they need a picture of the clip it self to match though. I think I had spoken to them and the guy that would be able to help me out with out a picture is out till like the 19th. Lets see wht I can do locally.
