Window trim - need advice on mounting...

[DPL]

On both the front and rear windows, it appears I am missing "a few" of the mounting clamps and I am wondering if anyone has used any adhesive or other glue instead of these clamps?

If so, what would you recommend?  This is for mounting the trim that butts the window and the hood/trunk.

Thanks in advance!

I would recomend getting the clips from RT specialties.  I had the same problem with my Challenger, first I tried some emblem ahhesive, it got all over the trim and glass and diddn't hold,  I used duct tape to keep the pieces from flying off, (this was 1985 and the car was my transportation)  When I finaly pulled the windshield and installed new clips, I had to find new chrome trim because adhesive and duct tape gue don't clean up well.

i agree,buy the clips its easier and its also correct.

what if my windshield is in and one of the clips broke off during installation,    can you install one with the glass in?  What about the rear?

Thanks

It turns out the clips come with a screw so yes, the windshield has to come out and the clips then go on. 

I've been told to expect to replace the front windshield seal however the rear could be saved (the rear glass is tempered and the installer will not risk cracking the windshield...)
