Where can I find these?
I have a car that I want to install the finish panel on but I have no clips for it.
Thanks

Kern Dog

I looked in a Year One catalog and while they do list individual clips that may or may not work, they didn't list a "kit" with a specific amount of clips and nuts.
I have one car with the panel on it and fully intact. I may have to remove it just to see what the clips look like.

Doesn't R/T Specialties have them. By the whole set though. If memory serves me correct around 170. I'll go check that out to see if still available.

I was off a little in the price. Just a little. Something tell me I made a post about those clips before. You can buy little generic clips for a doable replacement. No original but only you would know.

Wow, thank you! I have bought from these guys before when they used to travel to the Spring Fling in Van Nuys.

 I bought some of those generic clips with the little wire arms mounted on a thin plate with a small stud and they worked. I have some pics of what I mean somewhere. I'll be back shortly. A few years ago a fella didn't want to drop the bucks for a full set. I did buy some and they did work. I have pictures like I said, and I AM kind of lazy today. Pulled a all nighter breaking in my generator. Hit the sack this am at 5am.
Ok Greg back to you in a few.

Go down near the bottom Greg
A couple of pictures of those mentioned clips/fasteners. You should be able to source them locally. I mean I live in Bumblef@ck. And I found them in town.

One more for guys who know how to use a few tools. And is looking for functionality instead of concourse.

Yeah...Dodge Don banned me from the registry for my stance against covid protocols.
I don't care about whether the clips are factory correct or not, I just need them to work. Thanks!

Kern I think I used finish panel clips from a Challenger. Bought them years ago when they first come out cheap. I'm thinking something like these are the ones I bought not for sure but I'll go home and check this weekend.

Thanks to everyone that has been kind enough to help.
