Default inner door panel clips

Can someone please post a picture of the two lower clips on a 69 conv. How they attach to the door panel. Bubba was in here before, and there is nothing solid to attach them to. Thinking I might have to fiberglass them on the panel. A picture would be greatly appreciated... Thanks Here's what I'


m working with.

About all you can do is make up a tin piece bigger than the clip hole area (maybe go out another inch or so on both sides, find something about the correct thickness of the panel where the clip goes (1/8 hardboard?), clean out the existing hole and make the new piece fit and then bond it to the metal and the metal to the panel going out a ways to add some support. ????
