2016 Disco 4 - A Pillar Trim Clips

Does anyone know in what position on the A Pillar trim the white clips goes.
As I understand it the trim clip kits come with 4 grey clips and one white for each trim.

On my nearside A pillar the trim is loose at the top and lifting it away from the car I can see the white clip in there that is not "clipping" into position.

The earlier sets would have yellow and white clips, white clip at the very bottom followed upwards with yellow. If they have popped off replace them, it is I fit once and replace.

Thanks for that info.
National Windscreens have fitted the white one at the top hence the reason why the trim is loose at the top!
When I queried this with the local depot manager he tried to tell me that the white one goes at the top and the grey ones go beneath it...

I did post the section direct from Topix in one of the screen posts stating the correct order. AW couldn’t get mine correct put the white ones in position two and three on one side and yellows in all other positions.

We have just refitted mine and had to use yellow ones all the way down as the white clip would not go home.

Found a useful diagram that has some text explaining the bottom clip

I've just bought a complete set of 5 clips from a Dealer - LR077843 - they are all identical and all grey. Have LR changed the design so that it doesn’t matter which clips go where (to make it easier for the “technicians” to get it right)?
