I do not have a part number, or even a photo, of that clip.
However, I dimly recall that Restoration Specialities sells a similar clip. If you have a sample clip, send it to them. They will check for a matching clip.
Good luck,

Been in the Auto body business 22 years and none of my suppliers have anything for it. Restoration Supply company is great but they don't have it. I might have to make one. Was hoping this clip transfered over to another GM vehicle that might make the search more fruitful.

I might have another molding in storage with more clips and will update this weekend. Take a look guys and see if this sparks anything in the memory bank.
