What am I missing here?
My Ford book shows a different style retainer clip, compared to what I can find available.

I can’t seem to find the style of clip that is shown in the Ford book?
The eBay pic seems to be what all the kits have?

I may offer you some cash, if I can't find one... or maybe some detailed pics? Maybe I can rig my own retainer, lol

And they are just slightly different than the door clips, Again, I have stuff, some obscure enough to be valuable, to some anyway.
pM me your address and I send one to you.

Karthief, I greatly appreciate the offer, I did find one though.

Just seems crazy that none of the new hardware available, is the right hardware…

The door hardware may work for the trunk/hatch, I have not compared yet. That said there would not be a way to secure the clip with a rivit so it could be removed to gain entry.

I only glanced at the door clips a couple days ago, but it didn't look like it would work well either...
