All I have EPC but am not too good at using it. I need the part # for the back window/windshield/windscreen clips that look to be riveted on to the vehicle. They are what the chrome trim go on to. I am missing 2. :(

Thanks in advance,

FRom what I can see Bill you need 115 988 07 78 which has been superseded by 124 988 98 78. Joe will know better if this is right or not.

jbrasile sorry for stealing your picture but these are what I need:



Does anyone know how they are attached? They seem to be riveted but they swivel.

If you are interested just send an e-mail to joe@mbklassik.net

Tks,

Thanks Joe! Are they easy to put on, I would assume you use a rivet gun? Did you end up painting yours? I would be worried they will rust. I am contemplating replacing them all or just the missing 2. A contact at the Classic Center quoted me a price a little cheaper 124 988 98 78 $1.76 and 910001 003100 $.80

Much Thanks,

Bill, just replace all of them.

I didn't have mine painted. Yes you do need a rivet gun, I had mine installed by the dealer who put the windshield and rear window on.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Tks,

Joe
