Hard Top Side Moulding plastic clips

[BigHW]

I am looking to source the plastic clips which hold the side mouldings on to the Hard Top. Rimmers part number 625951 (10 needed) shown as No Longer Available and i cant find any on SOC Spares. Any suggestions where I may be able to buy these or any suggestions as to how to fix the side mouldings without them? Thank you

You can get these clips from LD Parts but they do not fix the side mouldings, they are an internal fitting. The roof gutter mouldings just clip into place, the lower mouldings are held with metal clips 630881.

What do the 625951 clips do? I just stripped my hardtop and didn't encounter any of these... though that doesn't mean a lot, given the molested state of things...

Just stripped mine too and, albeit in a rather weathered condition, all the fittings, clips, trim etc. were present and original and these 625951 clips didn't turn up at all either.

PS: just checked my hardtop structure and there are not even any holes in that area which would be needed for those clips.

Thanks for the replies and yes, these clips are for holding the heated rear window wire under the headlining / trim. Looks like Rimmers have used the wrong description as they appear to be the the side mouldings, but clearly not.

Certainly on mine the hardtop wiring runs in the cavity and not underneath the headlining or trim.

The cable run is so short as it's only really the "C" Pillar on each side and I'd be pushed to distribute 5 cable clamps each side - that would be one about every 4".
