I have a 1970 Duster that has the 2 inch wide aluminum rocker panel moldings. A few of the clips are broken and I am in desperate need of some replacements. I have searched every website that I can think of and cannot locate any. Classic Industries is now apparently repopping the moldings but not the hardware ? If anyone has any for sale or can point me in the right direction I would be forever grateful- Thanks in advance, Ron

I'm installing those same moldings from Classic Industries on my '69 Cuda ( I have to shorten them a bit to fit) I hunted around at various swap meets for clips and found 2 different p/n's that will work: 6003576 and 6003775

These are what originally came with 1971 Duster Rocker moldings. The plastic clips were used from the rear forward, the metal clip was only used in the final forward location on the fender dog leg. I don't know of any reproduction source for either clip.
I have not seen a 1970 wide style in person, it may have been the same? Scott That plastic clip don't seem to be wide enough to hold the 2" wide moldings - based on a measurement I took on an original and repro molding???? Jim

RealWing, would you let me know how those clips work out for you?
Am looking for some clips for my 69 as well.
It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

Am looking for some clips for my 69 as well. Will do. It may be a while (couple of months) before I'm ready to install.
