how do i tell which ones are for the middle bow for a wagon headliner? I know what they look like, they have a wider base than the front and rear, but how do I know from the photos on the website? Anyone bought the middle bow headliner clips for a wagon?

If they have these, http://northlandfasteners.biz/Store/product_info.php?cPath=37_106&products_id=751

I bet they have yours.


Tons of clips available here.
Call or e-mail them ?
Personal contact just might help.

I tried Northland but got no answer, so I went to NAPA and lo and behold I found the clips I was looking for.
(78 Malibu 2dr rear window moulding clips). There are two different ones on the window. The top and sides are metal and should come off in good shape, but the clips across the bottom are plastic and will most likely be junk.
The NAPA Balkamp part number is 665-1120. They come in a box of 14 and not a bad price. Hope this helps
someone. :)

I ordered a pair of fender extensions for a 76 Olds for a friend of mine. He owns a body shop and was doing a resto for a customer and didn't know they were available.
Replica Plastics had them here in 4 days.
He was very pleased with the quality and said they needed only minor prep work.

I hope anyone else that orders from them has the same positive experience.

Anyone have experience with reproduction header panels? I have had some bad experience with reproduction parts and I need a header panel but they are so fragile it seems that the used ones all seem to have a crack or broken part- like mine.

Not specifically with the ones for our cars, but I have had the (mis)fortune of dealing with them on customer cars (collision shop).

If you just need something there, they're not bad, but they are not as "clean" as the OEM pieces, and typically the bracketry is considerably lighter than the OE stuff. They also often arrive damaged.

IMO, keep shopping for a good used OEM piece. They seem to turn up in the classifieds pretty regularly here on the site.

Never had much luck with A/M parts always went OEM or used. Keystone industries bought goodmark witch is owned by LKQ inc. I have a good supply of OEM hardware that I haved saved for many years.

Going to use this info. I was hoping that the El Camino rockers were the same as the wagons
