Was just down at my local vaux garage to order the clips for holding on my gsi skirts, but was told they have to be ordered and i would have to buy them in packs of 50 
Is there any other way off holding them on? as im not buying packs of 50 clips

if u have a non gsi shell and want to use the clips, ull have to drill and screw the clips onto the sills, tbh very high chance of making a balls of it and ending up with a sill full of holes. i was gonna do it but have now decided just to bond them on

u need a spot welder to weld on the proper spuds onto the sills. if u do decide to go with this idea, then any bosyshop shouls be able to sort this for u altho ur back to bare metal for the spud to me welded on
bound to get the clips in wotever number you want, even my local vaux dealership could do this and i honestly believe they must be the worst about...

vauxhall have started doing this with alot of their parts as it makes it easier to get rid of old stock. Just bond them on mate, it is plenty stong enough to hold them on.
