Bresco sell them as well as all the other trim clips etc

Cheaper than some other Suppliers.

Both Paddocks & Rimmerbros have them in stock, but then add the postage makes them dear to purchase.

Its for the boot badges and they have a small raised edge at each end so there would be very little contact for the pads

When I put the Carledo together with it's GRP front end and brand new NOS bootlid (which wasn't drilled for the badges and trim strips) To reduce the risk of corrosion setting in (and save time and effort) I left the trim strips off and affixed all the badges with a double sided thick badge tape that you can get from any bodyshop suppliers. The boot badges took 2 thicknesses, but have been there since 2012 and show no sign of falling off!
