I would think something like RTV would be better, because it’s semi flexible and if you ever need to get them off, shouldn’t be too bad.

 

did you try an auto body supply house. the have all kinds of stuff you can match up

when i did my seats I ran out of hog rings.I was dreading to place a minimum order with $25 shipping
so i found one locally and he gave me a handful for free

 

How about double-sided foam tape. I use that on my fender emblems and it holds them on quite securely.

I’ve actually seen these a few times. How do these work?? They are not mentioned in the assembly manual as far as remember?

Gotcha! Might be better. Thanks!

Put up a PSA request on the board. maybe a member has a few laying around and will just mail them to you

 

Metal clips ordered. Gonna be here in a couple of weeks. Will update soon.

 

Got the clips!
Just to be sure: I attach the clips on the trunk molding trim like this picture and bend the long end down and "tuck" it "under" the lip? Then push the clips along with the molding in the square holes on the trunk and most likely chip the paint in process?

Just wanna make sure

 

In your first picture, the tail pulls down and tucks into the back of the trim piece. The clips are made this way so they stay in place and not slide freely in the trim.

 

The steel protrusion on the clip is flexible like a spring. Tuck it down in the trim. They do slide somewhat freely. Put all the clips on the trim and slide them so they line up with the holes in the panel. And carefully snap them in. On the assembly line, this was a 10 second job. You might be able to help the clip from the rear of the panel with needle nose pliers to minimize paint chips. There is no glue, adhesive, or tape involved.
