Interior Molding Clips

I'm looking to purchase some interior molding clips for the molding that runs up the A pillar and over the window. I have the clips for the A pillar. I need the ones above the window.

I spoke with GM and they told me that they were discontinued?

HiTech,

Check near the end of the following link for some info that may help, including the part number you'll need. I bought new from GM, but the part may well be discontinuted at this point.

Most auto parts stores have the help section...All bodyshops have their own supply and for a few bucks should get what you need.
If you hound a GM parts department, They'll just charge you accordingly, for their "mental anguish"... and just walk over to the bodyshop anyways. (trust me I know...)
If you want a permanent solution, and you're constantly working on your ride try these guys. They will treat you well, and you won't pay an arm and a leg. (No I don't work for them, but I have purchased from them for my shop.)

I feel your pain, dude.
Next time try a bodyshop. I'm sure they'll treat you better
