How To Install CHROME TRIM on a Classic Pontiac Firebird or Chevy Camaro & Trim Clip Install

[@donaldhalls2189]

It's great you working with your son, I used to like working with my dad fixing fences, making chook pen's, even used to help when he used to do Sheep and Cattle for the butchers, but he passed when I was 15 years old so didn't get to do too much, helped pulling a couple of boar pumps, for our Windmills, all the best to yous and your loved ones

Thank you Donald, hope you and the family are doing well.

I really like your idea of using the trim removal tool to aid with installation! I never would have thought about doing that. Gonna have to give it a try on my ‘66 Mustang. ✌️

[@OldBondoBilly]

I hate to break your hearts with tales of easiness, but I assemble the mouldings off the car, put strips of masking tape to keep it from coming apart, set it up in place and wiggle it into fitment, releasing and resticking the tape as needed. Then shock and awe palm slap it into place. But hey, I watched you guys do it, so that’s all that matters😁😁

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Oh man that’s a good idea as well!!! I’ll try that on the front chrome when I get there!

[@OldCarGarageUSA]

Good info there, thanks for sharing!

[@ArrowheadGarage]

You betcha, thanks for watching Old Car Garage

Great job on the trim and great video! It's nice to have help from your son sometimes.

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Yes, thank you Mofo!!! Hope you're staying warm and working on videos brother!

[@gordonindifference1140]

Perfect timing, I was just about to explore the Mystery of the Trim Clips! Any recommendations as to where to get the clip tool?

[@ArrowheadGarage]

I grabbed mine from Firebird Central!

[@gordonindifference1140]

@@ArrowheadGarage Actually, just watched your vid on rear glass removal and found your link to the Lisle tool on Amazon. Great stuff, thanks. Getting ready to replace my headlight rheostat, will be watching your vid on that!

[@gordonindifference1140]

@@ArrowheadGarage OK, got a tool, trying to figure out how to set the clip. Are you using the pliers to grip the clip and then push the high side back ?

[@davidbrown-55]

Gd tips. Where is the clip tool from?

[@IROC-ROB]

Great video, what kind of tool is that and where can I get it from?

[@MrYz250fman]

Thanks for the video

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Glad it helped you out Kaleb!

[@JK_Nex_Garage]

Great video. We were wondering how we were going to put that back on. It’s nice having the kids help out. Ours like to help whenever they can. 👍

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Coming along well - you planning on attending any shows in Phoenix this year?

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Hoping to this summer or fall... with no A/C yet I might have to wait until October lol

[@Supanova70]

Did you have to sand the pinch welds for the glass install front and back? was that area epoxy before paint? thanks

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Yes I did, we had to. cut off the original roof as it was rusted so badly.

[@Supanova70]

@@ArrowheadGarage Just trying to figure out if I should paint the whole car including the pinch Wells or just leave it in epoxy?

[@williamworden3597]

Can you tell us what the hell you're doing with the "door handle" removal tool. 😮

[@ArrowheadGarage]

Well William that wasn't the door handle removal tool, it is a trim clip removal tool, here is a link to check it out: amzn.to/3JUZy1Y

[@williamworden3597]

@Arrowhead Garage yes, I bought mine in 1959. Always used it to remove spring clip on door handle. How were you using it on the moulding clips. 🙂

[@OldBondoBilly]

Polish glass with 0000 steel wool😉

[@ArrowheadGarage]

I will have to try that!!!! Thanks man!

[@OldBondoBilly]

@@ArrowheadGarage watch out for those stupid birds after🤣🤣

[@EfurdGarage]

I am not looking forward to doing mine at all...

[@ArrowheadGarage]

I understand I was worried as hell!
