You need the retainer clip.

The strap slides through a slot in the quarter panel, then screws to the door with two screws, through a plate that has teeth to grip the strap. Look in the parts books for the plate with the teeth.

Is this the clip you are referring to?? The confusing part is that i have these straps AND i Have the steel arm door checks for the rear doors, I was not aware that the 31SW used Both???

I dont know why yours would have both. It must be a changeover period. If you have the metal stops, and never had the clips (as in your photo) then perhaps your car never had the rubber T straps originally.

Installing both makes no sense. What is the date of manufacturer? I would install only one. What does the door side look like? Does it have a place for both?

Yes, please try to post a photo. I would love to see that setup.
BTW, the original (non-metal) rear check straps were molded rubber with something like cotton webbing molded into it, so they would not be too stretchy. Are the new ones like that, or are they solid rubber? Doug |
