Don't use aftermarket clips. I know of several failures of clips from a well known aftermarket supplier. Including breakage when the trim was installed. Use Porsche only.
Expensive clips but so is the trim. Also had this happen to a friend at 120mph. It was before the crap clips were made. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) ,one thing to factor in is was the trim straight and true to the clips when refitted ,mine had a new Pilkington screen but the trim wasn't fitted ,spent an age reshaping the trim to fit right ,screen fitter had been less than delicate with it !!!. End of the day it snapped in real nice ,has passed the 100mph plus many times but really not in great condition (trim condition wise ) but not a big deal ,cheers. |
