When installing the 3 aluminum trim pieces on roll bar, are the 2 side trim pieces the only support for the top roll bare piece. The reason I’m asking is on my previous 914 I thought there was a clip in the center of the trim piece that fit in a hole in the bar to hold it in place. Thanks

the horizontal center bar should have 3 clips that secure it to the rollbar frame at the pinch weld seam

Those 3 trim clips hold it very secure. It takes a pretty good tug to remove.

Maybe bdstone, Garold, ect @xperu OK so now that I picked up the 3 clips, What is the best method to install. I looked at several threads, but no info. Like I said before it's been 10 years or so sense I removed the trim and really can't remember. I just do not want to screw things up. Thanks Mike |

Push straight on, it doesn’t slide on from the side. |

Just to clarify...The clips are slid into the horizontal aluminum trim then the piece is
pushed onto the pinch weld. |
