Aren't there two types of clips? It's been 20ish years since I restored my car, but I recall one type that looked like a clothing snap and the chrome snapped into place and the other kind slid into the end of the chrome and then attached through openings in the door skin. I think the chrome slid over those clips, not snapped into place.

Yes JB ~ there are a multitude of clips apart from the lopsided stud with nut that you slide over. You have to use them on the chrome strip on the front doors & centre bonnet or the strips blow off ~ but there are clips for the number plate box strips & bushes for the spears and the list goes on & on. I did a full list for the late DevilDog on the Register ~ You will find it in his thread. The number of different fixtures is staggering when you start including gutter centre clip etc. Not in kit. Mainly read from page 4 but read the whole thread.

That's why I bought the kit with some extra pop studs they are so useful. You save plenty by buying the kit vs. individually.
Then there are these staples for side of bonnet/hood
Then there is this rubbish that rusts. Original. Drill out all rivets and dump them in the trash
Get these.they work a treat.
Barratts sells a complete kit to replace all the chrome on the car if needed. It contains the decent clip.
