There is a special tool that ST used. The technique I used on my '70 TR6 was
to place a small piece of duct tape on the trim where I wanted the clip to
go.  Which gave a bit more "grip" for the clip than just eh plastic trim.  I
then used the metal paint can opener they give you at paint shops to pull up
on the clip to secure it.  I have also heard of folks using the old port
cover plate of a computer, bending the one end up to form a hook as a
devise.  This is one of those PIA jobs with the TR6.  Good luck.

I am putting the finishing touches on a 71 TR6 restroation.  I am stuck on
the window trim.  The clips from Moss were not the same size or style as the
original.  They simply do not work.  Where can I get the correct clips?  Any
tips on installation sure would save some knuckles.
