If you get the clips from VW, they will have a plastic rod/pin in the center of
the clip.
You have to remove this small rod so that you have a hole that the screw will go
into.

This is one that baffled the VW parts guy when I ordered some of these. It seems
that the
clip is used for multiple cars - so it is not readily apparent how the screw is
used.
