HELP needed to locate clips

Post by Walla Pete »

I have contacted Rare Spares and searched online for these 'w' clips and other screw clips that I need to attach the stainless steel strips for both the body/doors as well as the roof of my EK Station Wagon.
I have been able to get the 'w' clips made by Sam Crupi for the body/door strips but the square clips with the screws and the smaller 'w' clips that I need for the roof are a hassle trying to find.
If anyone knows where I can get them it would be much appreciated.
This is the 'w' clip I am talking about that I need for the roof stripping..

This is the roof stripping to give you an idea of what I mean..

And this is the ones that screw the strip onto the doors. There are two on each door.

Or can someone suggest an alternative that is used these days that will do the job.

Thanks

Hi Pete

Those w clips aren't the correct clips for the roof. I'll try and find the thread on here.

Try that

With trim running along the body search the forum for "crupi" he sells the w clips. You will also need some square ones with the threaded bolt and rates sells those.
