martyn wright Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Hi, I have just fitted new Window Outer Weather rubber strips using the correct clips without any problems! But when I tried fitting the Inner Felt Strips, I tried using the correct clips (Ones with a little hook) but the small part of the clip that hooks on to the door metal itself, keep coming off? Is there another type of clip that will fit? Cheers Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyn wright Posted October 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Hi Colin! Are you telling me that I have the clips around the wrong way?? Am I a Plonker or what!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 The short hook clamps the trim; the long bit clamps to the door skin. It's manufactured like that so that the inside clip doesn't scrape the glass as it goes up or down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn wright Posted October 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Yep! I still find them rubbish!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Flinn Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Some of the Reproduction clips are not made to the correct dimensions I'm afraid? I'm sure if you could find some originals you wouldn't have any trouble. However they must be like Rocking Horse Poo now 🙁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 maybe give the clip good squish in a vice to gain some grip ????????????? Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
