They go through the dash and then you twist them with pliers so they hold it in place. Half of mine are broken. Does anyone know where to get replacements? I found these, which are listed as grill trim clips for a '46, but they look identical. http://secure.oldchevytrucks.com/TR...-CENTER-STRIP-11-req/productinfo/TRC113/ Could they be the same thing?

They're a little too wide, but I can trim them a little with the bench grinder and make them work I think.
