Is it metal or plastic?

I wonder if the suppliers of fasteners for kit car builders have something that fits  :-\

I thought that http://www.bresco.com/ would have something but I can't see any  :-\

I assume the clip pushes onto a flat plastic tang on the rear of the moulding and then doesn't let go?

Maybe use a small Caddy Clip cut in half (sometimes called Hammer on Flange Clip or Fence Clips)?  :-\

They are a crap idea. One or two removals and they chaif enough plastic away to leave nothing to hold onto.

I wonder if drilling the plastic tang and an R clip might work?  Can't remember how wide the tangs are and if there's enough meat left for drilling? :-\

Loads I'm afraid, they are even more brittle after being heated a fair bit.
