    Are these clips reuseable? Whatever the case I would like to be in on purchasing some correct ones if someone can get them and there is some sort of quantity purchase.

    Yes....the clips are reusable...as long as they are in good shape, not bent, cracked, etc.

    a lot of times they get discarded with the sealer cleanup or they will be stuck to the old seal and thrown away. they are to help keep the windshield centered in the opening.

    Are the stands held in place by the same little studs the trim clips are? That might explain alot. If that's the case, I need to get some before I install the windshield. Right

    Are these "stands" like hens teeth? Any good source for them?
