Me too, My trunking just fell off probably when going over speed bumps (slowly).
My vans 2 years old, is it possible crappy plastic was used for these clips.

went to the local stealer yesterday to enquire;

over £10 each. at least 6 clips needed. = nearly £70

I managed to resisted their very tempting offer.

These clips are pain,some of mine are broken and the trunking was saging,I used a long cable tie ,put it trough the two holes that the clips use and around the trunking.seems to work ok.

Can someone tell me/show me how these clips work and how best to release them without breaking them?

I've teased the trunking to try and get it off but it feels like I'm at the point of breaking it.

Looking to route a third brake light reversing camera cable.

Any help/pointers much appreciated.

'Push up' rather than 'pull away'?? :shock:

That might explain it then! :o
