    Glad you received your package all OK there.
    No, the clips are not available to buy. Destroy a clip and you'd have to buy a new strip.
    There's 6 clips all different to each other spread over the 4 straight door trims.

    I love how the black trim looks especially against the white. Too bad about the clip. Using a plastic door puller tool and pliers I just couldn't remove the one clip without a struggle. Any further advice anyone?

    Are you trying to keep the chrome trim? If not, grab that sucker in the middle and pull up, it will bow (bend) and come up. Remove the rear first (force), and then put something under the front lip (between trim strip and upper door panel to pivot off of (a thin plastic panel tool works) and pop the front out. Be very wary of the amount of force you're using and be sure that if anything pops loose it will do so AWAY from the car, and not into the door or window or pillar at all.

    Yes, I would like to 3/4 salvage the chrome pieces as someone could use them down the road.

    GM Part Numbers : 92294363 (left, black) 92294362 (right, black)

    EDIT, JULY 10th 2015....GM in North America have stopped stocking and selling the 2x long Black Gutter trims.

    The complete boxed set of 4 straights and 2 long curved gutters all in Black are still available shipped by UPS from Australia to your door.

    Paul, since GM has now stopped selling the long gutter trim pieces, how much for the two long gutter trim pieces in black shipped to the USA?

    That looks like a strong box. Without it, I doubt most shipments would reach the US without being bent. The box looks well engineered. At 7 feet long, that must put you into the "Dimensional Weight" shipping tables, I assume.
