Ralph Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hi, new member and looking for assistance. On 4th year restoring 70 Monte and can't find correct fasteners for rocker chrome. Bought some from OPG and had them sent to Calgary but they don't fit. Called OPG and they told me they should so no help from them. Has anyone had the same issue? Lastly nice to finally join as member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7tonemonte Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I used AuVeCo part # 8400 worked perfectly . Its a plastic clip instead of a metal one, so no worry of it scuffing the paint then rusting. I used to keep a few boxes around for members but I cant find any more in my garage or Id send some out. https://www.auveco.com/universal-moulding-fastener-nylon-8400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leghome Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I used the AuVeCo 8400 on mine also. Bought a box and then when Leo delivered my new moldings he included some more. Gave the extras tot he shop that painted my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They worked perfect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I also used those AuVeCo clips and they worked well. My local auto parts store (Lordco) ordered them in for me since they were an AuVeCo dealer. I hope to see you and this car at the Western Meet in Montana next year! Not too far from Calgary. We'll have 25+ members from 4 Provinces and 6 States there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
