I was thinking of getting the Plastic push clips from the dealership and drilling holes and using the clips. how does that sound? b4 i start anything i would like to know what other options you guys are using. any pictures and info will be great. thanks.

I used push clips on the last few BLs I did... I got them from my local parts store, way way cheaper than the dealer was....

i used heavy black rubber/plastic runner from home depot, and bolted it on with washers to distribute the stress. in front i used the existing snap-ins.

I have seen it done with the plastic push clips Mr. Bob was talking about it. You have to drill a very small hole through the line and frame, a little smaller then the clip, and then just push it in. The guy I went with on the last TTORA ride did that, and he said it holds up extremely well, probably your best bet.

I got the thick black rubber crap but basically the same thing I guess?

Anyways, I just used some self tapping metal screws and screwed it on to the inside fender well.

I picked up the rubber pond liner by Firestone iirc from Home Depot... Ended up just using self tap screws... I do plan on taking them off and using regular plastic clips sometime though.
