Which are the correct hood blanket clips for 69 Z/28. The all solid ones or the ones with 4 small round holes?
Thanks LM69Z28
round ones with the holes...
Thanks, any partiacular installation? Are the holes postiioned at 3 6 9 and 12 O'clock or 2 4 8 and 10?

The holes are already in the hood. 13 around the outside edges and 4 somewhat in the middle.
My response was misunderstood. The plastic retaining clips have 4 small round holes. How are the clips postioned so at what quadrants are the holes in the clips located at.
Imagine looking at the face of a clock to position the holes in the clips onto the blanket
Thanks

Check this link at Alan Colvin's web site. They are at 12, 3, 6 and 9 in this picture but who knows how they ended up when installed.

I believe the clips were applied randomly! You can find plenty of these in junkyards on 69 passenger cars, and just clean them up.
They are the rounds ones with the 4 small holes in them.
Following up with Alan Colvin...............Thanks much to all who have responded! LM69Z28
I bought some of Alan Colvins clips when he first came out with them and they are the best ones out there .
LM69Z28 PM sent.
I don't think blue collars did pay much attention when they slammed the clips in place!
Here is the result of my own mounting:

...you have to push really hard to get them fixed in place, beware of cracked thumbs! ;)

That's correct - they just whacked them in with a rubber mallet; no attempt was made to orient them.
