Those metal clips, I recall that the ones I posted pics of were the wrong shape (rectangular) for my '68 and I had to use some I yanked from a yard. The square ones were not reproduced at that time. I THINK that there is a difference based on A/C or non-A/C.
kk 68, is your car an A/C car?

As for the assembly manual, I know there are a number of '68 pages used in the '69 manual for some reason..but I can't say that I recall seeing that one before.
Yes, my car has A/C. And I haven’t seen those little square clips reproduced either.

I don’t know if it’s a A/C vs non-A/C difference or not. Someone told me the longer red ones sold by vendors are also used on Buick and/or Olds.

Ok, so that tells me that the OP's car should be fine with the repops sold by Ames. His appears to be a non-A/C car and the holes look to be rectangular shaped, as far as I can see from his photos.

Jeez ... I thought you might have the Grail
