I keep reading about clips for the vent shades..... I dont think that I have ever seen any...
Can someone post pics of these elusive clips? Apparently Im going to need them for the vent shades on my wagon..

The vent shades I installed on my Lakewood did not have any clips.

ok. Perhpase I'm confused. I know on the FC's they are bolted on, and the wagon ones seem to just be held in by the tension against the frame around the windows with the lips tucked into the area behind the channel linner and outer frame.
But I saw mention of clips for Wagon Shades so I figured I was missing soemthing...
Guess I should just check the accessory install manual for 1962...

They may hold fine without them but they did come with clips.

without the clips, you run the risk that they will fall off. Some vent shades are installed with tin;y screws. Every car model is different.

I installed some NOS ones on a 61 last summer. The shades did not want to stay in place very well without the clips. If they are supposed to have them, use them.

It doesn't leak, it's marking it's territory.

Wow! Neat! Never seen them before.
Yes. Id be more concerned that they'd fly off at speed on the hwy.

How many clips are needed to hold up the wagon units? 8 per car?
