I have 2 66 skylarks and neither one of them had chrome on the rocker panels. I know 65's had chrome on the rocker panels.

Sorry about that. They do have chrome on the rocker panels. I must have my head some place else. I don't remember when I did mine if I had to replace any of those clips or not. If I did ,I don't remember where I got them. Again, sorry about the first reply. Les

Here's a couple of pages from the parts catalogue showing nos for the clips and moldings. Five different
part nos are used on the lower side moldings which start on the front fender. Most of these clips are one-year-only Buick parts. There are still a few expired eBay listings out there where some NOS pieces came up for sale.

The clips for the molding behind the rear wheel shows some interchangeability and likely availability. The 4839023 was used on side moldings of the '66 Olds Cutlass, '67-68 Chevy pickup/Suburban, and '61 Chevy Bel Air.

Some clips for the Cutlass which may work are shown in the Fusick catalog:

Restoration Specialties carries lots of clips and could possibly provide a match from a sample or photo of the originals:
