need help with 54 GMC Cab

HI, I have a 54 GMC Cab and need to the find some clips to finish my restoration. #1 , The GMC and Chevy for 54 have a moulding that goes on top of the dash right next to the bottom of the windshield . this moulding goes over the defroster outlets and helps distribute the hot air on the windshield. it take 6 long screws and 6 clips. The clips are high and holds the moulding up high enough in the front to direct the hot air from the defroster on to the windshield . It sets with the back tight against dash to keep the air from going to the top of the dash.

# 2, I need the Radio Delete clips (2) I can get them with a Radio Delete but I don't nee a Radio Delete. I would like to have the parts numbers of the clips or a source to find them. I have searched several clip vendors with no avail. Appreciate the help.

Re: need help with 54 GMC Cab

I can probably help with the dash strip clips. All of the radio deletes(not many) that I have ran across for 54 GMC trucks used a clip/stud combination. Different than a Chevy which used a push in clip that slid into the delete plate . 54 GMC trucks are pretty rare which makes those parts hard to f
find. Thanks
