Neither clip is right for the upper pads. The clip to the right is close but the base isn't wide enough. It should be as wide as the clip opening in the pad. At least on my 1970.

Interesting, do you have pics of your clips?

On the pic, the clip to the right was included with the pads, the metal is quite brittle, one snapped off when I tried to install them...
The clip on the left is what was installed in my 68 and what I use now, makes the pad stick to the door like glued.  :icon_smile_big:

Both clips creates the bump.
I have checked with my original pads and none of the clip creates a bump there, so the pad foam is clearly at fault here.

Sorry no pics of the clips on my 70. The pads are now reinstalled. I used the clips that where on the old pads. The base was definitely as wide as the cut out notch with no sloppiness when inserted into the pad.
