53buickconvert Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I am trying to find these clips for my 53 Roadmaster Convertible beltline trim just below the windshield.

Bhigdog Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 McMaster lists the carrage bolts in both galvanized and stainless steel. Prob available at most hdware stores. A few minutes with a square file to turn round holes square, a few taps in a vice to make the bend and......... viola........you have both your clips and self satisfaction................................Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick man Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 A machine/metal shop can press stamp square holes in sheet stock, then bend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
