I am in the process of replacing the woodgrain vinyl on my 1996 RMW. When removing the surround trim moulding, the clip at the front of the RHS "spear" broke. It just would not budge, even with the cornering light out, and eventually it broke.

My new vinyl has arrived from Stripeman for installation, and I need to find a replacement clip (the rest of my spear is in very good condition, so I prefer to get the clip only as opposed to the whole spear -- trim and clips).

--> does anyone have that front-most clip for sale? It is seen in the photo below:

I'm guessing you already looked at the official parts sources and it's discontinued? Can the surround trim not be retrimmed in situ? Sorry don't have a source for you...ive been making enquiries to getting parts 3D printed. Could be an option for you and less costly in America than up here in Igloo land.
 
@kiltedscotsman -- thank you for the response. I ended up finding a used molding on eBay, and parting it out for the clips. You are correct, they are unobtainium other than through salvaging yards. Sometimes having the part nbr helps, which is why I posted.
