Which clips for interior panels ?

[RemCharger]

The install part is important, but for a vinyl door card , the flat one is better. The destructions show with the tool how to split the card board and get the clip on so it doesn't look like *** underneath the vinyl.

Again all shown in a restoration thread, but I digress.. ;o)

I used the ones in the second picture in our Charger.

Our (66 67) Chargers have the expensive extravagant full 1 piece vacuum formed carpeted door panels.. way more forgiving. Could use either clip

The FSM and parts manuals are pretty neat too.

For upper and lower panels?

I only took off the middle front door panels, see my thread below.

I’ve found both in the 3 Mopars I’ve owned too. I prefer the stamped steel one but I usually tweak both styles when installing so that they pop loose a little easier for later removal. I think the stamped one don’t show through on the vinyl surface as much as the wire ones.

No matter which style you use, put a bit of silicone grease on them. Helps stop paint chipping and eases the installation.

I use dielectric grease

Yep, need to make sure they're properly grounded.

Closer to 7/8, definitely not 1 1/8.
The specs are in Class.Ind description.
Yes used them on both interior door panels just last week.

Gotta go with 7/8” also. I had a few missing & went to local upholstery shop & he gave me a couple for VW’s. Looked & worked identical.

Cute but, dielectric grease is a insulator, it does not conduct electricity.

My point exactly however irrelevant Mike.
