68 coupe windshield pillar trim question
Hi everyone. I'm trying to install the two vertical stainless windshield pillar trim on my 68 coupe. These moldings are more than an inch too short on my car, so that you can actually see the windshield frame where the top fender trim meets the windshield. How long are these pieces on a 68? As always, thanks for your help.

your missing fender trim and wiper door trim, that's why they appear short.

Hi 55,
Here's the piece of fender trim that's installed to match the trim that's on the rear of the wiper door.
There are 2 small clips that secure the trim piece in place plus a small screws at the end of the trim that's hidden.
Regards,
Alan
Here you can see the 2 clips position. A small hole must be drilled in the fiberglass so that the prong on the bottom of the clip secures the clip in place.
The holes required for the clips.
The clip. Must be installed 'prong' side down.

I have a ‘69, these trim pieces are loose?
How do this clip on? Seems one side of each of the moulding pieces have come loose. The outside of each. Don’t want to damage it further by trying to pop off, as the one side that is holding is holding pretty well.
