The ditch molding clip can include a single piece body. The single piece body can include (1) an outer frame surrounding an interior opening, (2) a clip-to-molding retention coupling including a plurality of resilient arm members extending from the outer frame and designed to engage and retain a corresponding edge of the molding, (3) a clip-to-weld-stud retention coupling positioned within the interior opening and including an aperture designed to receive and retain the weld stud, and (4) an extensible member extending between the outer frame and the clip-to-molding retention coupling. A longitudinal length of the extensible member can be designed to lengthen to allow the clip-to-weld stud retention coupling to move within the interior opening to accommodate for variations in the positioning of the weld stud relative to the ditch. The extensible member can have a corrugated configuration.
