I have been looking everywhere I can think of for the metal 'V' looking clip that holds the metal sliding sunroof's headliner shell in place. There are several of them that install into the front of the metal piece that the headliner adheres to, and they hold the headliner panel to the sunroof panel itself.
I am missing a few of them and I cannot seem to find a source for them anywhere.
They are a V shaped metal clip, about 1/4" wide by about 1/2" deep.
If anyone knows of a source for these clips, or has some extras, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks
Greg

Put in a WTB (want to buy) ad in the Samba Classifieds. Parts, Type One Bug 1968 and Up.

I used an early Bug moulding clip. Worked fine. You will need to take the bends out of the part that rests against the panel.
