ABSTRACT:
The "klear klip" is a unique one piece design clear plastic mirror clip with no exposed screws. It has a slanted ramp in the base of the clip to strengthen the bottom of the clip to serve as a device to hold the mirror snug to prevent the mirror from rattling and to maximize the ventilation on the back of the mirror to prevent mirror deterioration. The top clip has a screw depth gauge which automatically stops the mounting screw at the proper position which allows the clip to open and close freely. The elongated design allows the installer to measure for the top clip mounting screw position without having to subtract any fractions of an inch. This helps prevent the top clip from being mounted at the wrong height. When the mirror is mounted on a flat surface the top clip may also used as a bottom clip to minimize the space between the mirror and the surface that it is mounted on. When a larger space is required or when the mirror is to be mounted a certain distance above a solid surface, the heavy duty bottom clip is required. Unlike metal clips, when the "klear klip" is mounted, its crystal clear body design is virtually unseen against the surface of the mirror and it will not rust or corrode.
