OK...I'm on the right track....When the car came to me there was no sign of any type clips of course....So I had my used parts supplier find some...he brought some today that look like your picture, but they fit really tight

They are supposed to fit tight when you snap them in the roof rail or do you mean they fit tight in the trim?

not be smart but, you are sliding them into the trim from the end right? after that you push or palm them in place with IIRC a screw on each end

I'll give it more attention when the time comes, right now I was just trying to figure out if I had the right clips...

Thanks everyone

Now I'm in deep sh!t....

I thought I had the right clips and was only imaging that they were too tight.....

Then like a gift from the Easter Bunny, I found this clip just lying all by itself on my workshop floor

Check out the size difference...The larger one was supplied by my guy, the smaller was found today....

The smaller one slides into the trim with minimal effort....but I only have one

I just dug 6 out of a 69 charger for the runner. Mine look like the smaller ones.
It only had one in it and the roof rail would not stay up.

I'll forwarn you. if the moulding is tweaked at all it's a paininzaazz to get to stay up. so I hope you did a test before it was painted

Compare them to a Quarter in in the picture I posted...If they are the smaller ones I will buy them off of you...ASAP.
