CC Door panel clips
Tried to reuse the original Custom Cab door panel trim clips with no success. Browsed the Ford parts catalogs and have not been able to locate them, if a member knows where I can purchase them it would be greatly appreciated!!.

Went thru Mac's paper back and online catalog and could not find them, the thread is couple years old so perhaps Mac's has discontinued but I will call them tomorrow to confirm. Appreciate the info, I thank you!

Go to the Auveco website. They have a little program you can use to download their catalog of extensive automotive fasteners. I keep that catalog on my desktop. You can't buy direct, but once you find the part number you can search it online from fastener specialists or even Amazon. It will come in very handy. If you don't want to go that route, send me a photo of the clip and I'll look for you.

Carolina Classics reproduces the clips - a faithful reproduction in my opinion. See if this link works for you.

That be 'the' clip. Just placed the order; spoke with R.Allen @ Carolina Classic, nice man; hoping I would not have to order additional 61-66 components after this project but when I do, try and give him my business.
Can not thank U's all enough, I greatly appreciated it!!

Make sure you get a small roll of Butyl tape. If and when I sell a set of trim, I try to include enough tape to do both doors.
The thinnest I have found was 1/16" If this is still to thick you can flatten it.
A small piece on each clip does the trick, no rattling no loosing clips.

gangstakr; appreciate the information! Not sure if same/similar to product mentioned, I have an excess of the 3M spaghetti thin stick caulk that I placed around each of the clips, did not use much but perhaps enough to prevent the clips from fully seating; I assume the original clips have lost their spring capability? When I removed the door panel I found a similar type product was used, intend comparing the two for the easiest application, now just a matter of waiting for the clips.

No such thing as a door trim panel clip. The door trim panel is retained by the three mouldings that surround it. The mouldings are retained by clips.
Ford part number is 378586-S32 / The last time I listed Carolina's repro clip, it was part number 378586

Don't forget that one of the 378586 clips attaches directly to the vinyl trim panel itself and not to the anodized aluminum trim pieces. Just one per side. It's toward to front edge in the middle vertically. It keeps the panel from flapping around along the leading edge.
