Hi guys,

Where can I get 64 Dart Stainless Side Moulding Plastic Clips?

I got a bunch from R/T Specialties but they are too big.

The ones I need are about 3/16" Wide to fit in the moulding.


Thanks,
Greg

Google this part number: 113-853-585C
I have read elsewhere that this VW clip works well, but cannot attest to it as I am not yet that far along on my project. Good luck.
 
Yes those sure Look right, but I would like to get a dimension on them - I have No Access to VW Beetles to measure the trim.

Has anyone else used these with success? if so I can spring for 50 on ebay for less than $10

Just FYI, not all beetle long side trim is the same or attaches the same. Early beetles had wide trim and the clips attached to the trim and then poked into holes that have rubber cups inserted first. The clips were metal. The later ('68 and later) had thin narrow trim and plastic clips that you attached to the body and then snapped the trim on to them.

Cool That Looks Good. 0.240" Width for the Trim - Should work!

Thanks a bunch Gang!

Slant Six - Have you found a clip that works? I ordered some off eBay that supposedly match the 113-853-585C specs, but they are too wide/thick to fit the chrome profile. Wondering if I got a bad supplier, or if that VW clip number is not compatible.
