Hey guys, I have a huge collection of molding clips that were organized into ziploc bags and then placed into a box when I began disassembly on my truck. I don't know what happened, but all the bags popped open, now the clips are all mixed together. Now that I'm ready to put the trim back on, I'm hoping someone here can help me figure out what's what.
Here's what I've got. I know that "A" is the main door and bed clip, does it do the fender too? I'm pretty sure "E" is for the tailgate upper and lower trim. I'm guessing that "C" is for that thick lower molding. Pretty much no clue where anything else goes. This is on a '78 SuperCab that used to have racetrack trim, but I deleted it. Can anyone help?
Very curious as well. I have not found any documentation on what clips go where for the side trim.
The Ford 73-79 Truck Series 100/500 Master Parts and Accessories catalog has a whole section on the trim and what clips are needed.
Available on CD from Hipoparts.com and also E-bay and other suppliers.

Circled letters correspond to clips pictured/listed after the mouldings. There's waaaay too many to post pics of.
With factory installed Race Track mouldings (upper pic), Ford did not install wide ribbed lower mouldings (lower pic).
A is for the trim that goes in the dent, fenders door & bed.
B has me stumped. I think it is used on the dent molding, maybe at one of the ends?
C looks like the wide lower molding clip. There are also metal clips used on that trim.
D is for the narrow trim on the tailgate.
E may be for the narrow race track pieces.
F is for the narrow race track pieces.
G goes at the ends of the trim in the dent, one at the end of the fender, one at each end of the door, one or two in the bed.
