I don’t know if this is a design flaw or poor installation but these clips don’t seem to able to hold their place and keep falling off. Any suggestions to keep them secure?

I have had good luck using Ford specific hardware from this bag I bought off Amazon.
Metal and plastic for the push in nuts where metal doesn't work.
I'm sorry it's been over a year and I don't have the link any longer.
Good Luck
