I'm not sure what they are called exactly, but I am looking for the R&L side sail trim fasteners that hold the side trim to the body at the trunk level/bottom of the sail trim peice. Thanks. Mike

I have noticed (when removing these clips) that there is generally a blob of urethane or butyl on the top of the clip, and a small piece of double side tape on the very end of the trim. I think this was meant to help the end of the trim stay in contact with the body during high speeds.

The Butyl was "intended" to keep the water from the tires from passing throught the holes in the body at the clips!

I would have thought the same, except its on the top of the clip in contact with the back of the trim.

I think they would push it into the hole from the top then pop in the clip or visa versa! Just trying to keep the water from passing through the hole!
