Upper tailgate panel clips

I scored a very nice condition black/chrome upper tailgate panel for my 75 Highboy.
Truck currently has the thin chrome trim in place of this upper panel.
Holes are drilled for the hardware (screws and studs) that hold the new panel in place.

Question: are the clips that hold this thin strip in place the same ones that hold the top of the Black/chrome upper panel?

if not does anyone have the part number for the correct clips?
Thanks in advance.

You are welcome, glad you like it. If you have the thin lone trim piece, then yes you have the plastic clips for just that thin piece. But that big panel does not/did not use anything on the top or bottom long edges. Just the 6 middle brackets and the tail gate end edge brackets.
