Anyone know where i can get those plastic clips used to secure interior trims in place? they look like little white plastic buttons with a sharp tip. The dealer says they have them @ $1 each.


thanks

Hmmm... did I miss something, or did you answer your own question? I believe your dealer has them.... for $1.00.
You could try a generic part available at Pep Boys etc... Probably cheaper, but you might not be satisfied with the fit. Do a search on the web for 'panel fasteners' will turn up quite a few hits.

Try a NAPA auto parts store, when I needed some for my truck I found 'em there..they have about a million different ones..and the 350 isn't on the part# list yet..so ya gotta know what your looking for.

oh ya... what i meant to ask was the local are charging $1.25 for a littel plastic clip. Seems to be a rip-off to me. It probably costs less than 5cents to make. I was asking if anyone know where i can get a dozen or so for a reasonable price. sorry for the confusion.

They have to charge that hefty price to pay for all of the Research and Development that went into the clip.

j/k

Don't forget the safety reports written after the fact and the re-development to ensure better safety.

$1 a piece. Thats crazy. I have about 5 extra from the rear spoiler kit. Just go ask the service dept if they have any laying around. Dont say you want to buy some. I am sure AutoZone, PepBoys, etc sells these and they are maybe a quarter. I have orange and white ones. The orange ones seems to be stronger.

Are these them?

Thanks for all the reply.

VandyZ: actually, the clip looks a little different from the ones you mentioned. They are blue or white in color and have a sharper tip with a Xmas tree like pattern.

But $1 what a rip-off price. if someone knows the nissan part # please let me know

thanks

I broke one of those clips when I pulled my door panel off after installing new audio equipment. I went to the delaer and asked for one. WELL... after looking up the part to be sure I got the proper one.. it seems there are THREE different types. They all look the same to me, but they are either White, Orange, or Blue. I was told they were $2.25 each.

I have one less clip in my door now, and I have no rattles. Not only did I not want to pay $2.25 for a 5 cent plastic part, but I forgot WHAT color one I had broke...

If you can hang for a day or so..I'll have a NAPA P/N..just so happens I took a pic and measurements of them while I was installing my speaks..My golf partner owns a NAPA store..I'll be back soon!
