        Thank you Mike.

        I had 4 clips already on my car, and 2 were missing. Paragone had some that were restored (however, just raw silver with no plating). They were a perfect match to what was already on the car.

          Tony,

          1. Are you going to paint or plate these clips black? Or, use them as is in the silver color?

          2. Any trick to installing these clips? Or, do they simply push in?

            Christopher,

            1. I will black them out with the same blackout paint I use in the engine bay. (The ones I pulled out did have black paint on them, and Mike confirmed they should be black.) On my original ones, I use some paint stripper to get the old paint off, then very lightly blasted them to get the rest of the paint in the tough spots.

            2. I have not put them back, in, so not sure of any tricks. I did use a screwdriver to pry them out and they came out pretty easily, so I assume I can just push them back in. Maybe a tap with a rubber hammer.
