I bought new instrument panel for my 69 and it didn't come with
the 4 clips that hold in turn signal and warning lights. My old
clips just fell apart trying to remove them from od carrier. Anybody
buy those lately. Thanks, Bill

Exactly what do the clips look like Bill?
I just had mine apart and back together this weekend and I can't visualize what clips you're talking about. My carrier might be totally missing the clips. :)

Holds in 2 bulb clusters for directional lights and warning lights. Anyone have
some I can buy?

Hmmmmm... might need to do some investigation. Never seen those before.
I looked at every catalog I could find and didn't see those clips anywhere.

I am looking everywhere for these 4 clips, I guess I could fabricate something
to hold bulb carrier. Ya know how some things can drive you crazy, these are
the only parts I can't find after restoring entire car!! Thank's for your help, almost done with the car.

Only thing I'd suggest is placing a Parts Wanted ad and asking if someone has a busted old carrier laying around that they'd try to get the clips off of.

Hi Bill;
I recently replaced my instrument carrier also. If i remember correctly, the bulb carrier snapped right into the new carrier, however I did replace the bulb carriers as well. They had little fingers on the outside of the bulb carrier that snapped right in. Do yours not have the fingers on the bulb carrier? Let me know if you can't find them - I have a guys card and I'm sure he'll have them, but I'd have to dig-up his card. Good luck.

Tony, Thanks but I found some clips at GM Classic parts that may work. I can't
believe how hard it was to find them. For 3 nights I searched everywhere on
the internet. I built the whole car from the ground up and these dam 4 clips were
the hardest parts to locate. Thank's Bill
