Windsheild trims Install
Hey Guys,
Im after some help ive got some freshly polished window trims i need to install them..
I have these clips below which i beleive slot into the bottom trim..
But i also am not 100% sure if they are correct ones as they dont seem to fit well into the trim at all..
If anyone has some detail pics of instructions on how to install these that would be gretly appreciated!! I know these are fragile and i dont just want to attempt it and snap them all
cheers

those are good, they slide in.. mine took some force to install, but then again I had some "new" ones, the only real challenge is when your putting the trim back on because sometimes they just dont click

Those are the correct clips for both the bottom piece as well as the ones on the top of the windshield. You need to snap that small tab off (the one that is sticking up higher than the rest of the clip) It is there to help you hold it while installing it (I'm guessing).
Start with the lower windshield trim, then the sides and finish with the top. That's how they all overlap, and makes it nice and easy. Just take your time and you'll get it. Some of the pieces will be a bit stubborn...
Oh and you snap the clip onto that metal pin on the body, then the trim snaps onto it. Wish I had some pics cause it's hard to explain....

Yeh sweet got that - what i was more after was how do I install them and what's the best way to go about it..
Did any one have to use a little bit of sikaflex to hold the clip on the trim or do you simply put the clip on the tabs on the screen and then simply push the trim down etc..
It just seems that in my above pics of my clips and trim there is a lot of slop and movement - I'm
Not sure if there is another clip or anything missing if you get what I mean..

You don't need any glue etc to hold them in. You don't have it in the right spot on the trim though in those pics. Once you push the clip onto that pin on the body and look at the trim you should see how/where on the trim it is actually grabbing. It is really tight once it's all together.
Wish I had some pics of this, it's hard to explain lol
