It's always great when a fellow member comes through for you. Thanks Dave.

While we are on the subject of molding clips, the reason I needed these is because the molding on my RF fender just fell off the car one day. Good thing it wasn't when I was driving. All the clips were on the molding and I didn't see any of the expansion pins that I see in the clips I received from Dave. Another thing I noticed is the molding was always too high on the fender, like it was installed with the clips upside down. (because of the offset of the pin) Saying all that, I would think you install the clips in the proper position and snap the molding onto them.

I believe the molding misalignment is just a factory f**k up. Mine is the same and never been apart. Have seen others the same
 
Usually the last clips on a panel are a metal one with stud, that allows adjustment in the hole up or down, to align to the next trim piece. Try this adjustment.
