Default Windshield trim clips

Does anyone have a picture of the clips installed, how many do you need and are they along the side for side trim also?

Hi Bob,
On my 71 there are 6 clips. They are only used across the top header and are there to hold the long thin SS trim that's right against the windshield.
Regards,
Alan

The short trim pieces that go on the outside above the fenders take two small clips each and they can be tough to slide the trim on without the clips falling off. I put a little JB weld on the clip where it fastens to the trim and let it set all night , then slid it on the fender the next morning. I don't know if the factory clips were a problem, but the aftermarket clips sure are.
