I am getting ready to pull my windshield so I can replace my dash top and padding .
Where is the best place to buy new clips for the metal trim ? I figured while it's out I might as well replace the windshield with one I can see out of . |

Buy the OE Porsche clips. They're like $4-5 per clip so be ready for that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) They are not cheap but neither is the chrome that they are tasked with holding down. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Pelican sells them. |
