Thanks for confirming! Bummer I just received my NOS clips today! Sure enough they are for the wide “standard” GTX/RR not the narrow Sport Satellite. See picture. I am at a loss as well. There were only 7,000 some odd 70 Sport Satellite’s made and not many survivors. It’s more rare than the 70 GTX’s.
You could make up something that will work,no one would see it.
Yes thanks I had to do that on my rear trunk chrome. It worked better than the stock clips! But yeah I will have to see if Wayne has any ideas. He like me and many of us spent a lot of time hunting for parts. A significant amount of time actually…
would these work? Pardon Our Interruption...
I know that feeling owning 1 year only cars.
Not sure. The problem is this a blind mate connection. This means no access from behind or anywhere. It’s a press fit. Maybe I can 3D print something. I just don’t like PLA and I can’t print nylon. Also it’s a snap fit on the moulding side and thats real tricky to tolerance up.
I don’t think by itself that will work as it has to lock into the rocker moulding as well as the hole.
The problem with used parts as they won’t exist for this part. What I mean to say is you have to destroy them to take them out. That old plastic is brittle as hell and won’t hold either. If you do get one out that’s not destroyed.
That might fit as the width is approximately 1-3/4”however that taper pin will not positively lock. It’s a jam fit and might come loose with vib etc.
