just ask for the plastic poppers to put your vt kit back on. im sure they will know what you mean. thats what i said when asking for the ones for the doorcards.

Just arch clips? Who knows lol
I'd stick some tigerseal or something on it as well so they don't get pinched again

Our arches got knicked in December too¬!¬! ??
Aye - those clips, go for the short grey ones look like an arrow head - not the long black ones shaped like a peanut - they are shat and don't lock them in.
It's worth spending a mo lining them up to the holes in the arch and not forcing them all deep into the trim brackets and then trying to force the trim back on - they will not all line up first time. Did your new ones come with the metal bracket for underneath?
By the way StevieT your avatar is hypnotic!
