Thread: Inside body panel clips

  1. #1

    Inside body panel clips

    Anyone have a good suggestion on where to find these? When I installed new rear speaker I broke about 2-3 of the clips. They are the little white/cream push in clips that hold the internal panels to the side of the car. Any help would be appreciated. I went to my local Isuzu dealer and the guy said he could special order them for $2.50 a piece... didn't seem quite right.

    I tried some generic GM and Ford clips but they are to small.

    Thanks in advance.

    I hereby second the motion!

    Can't we do a group-buy from some Taiwanese auto-parts manufacturer? Just buy a couple of bushels, with maybe about 10,000 clips, and then parcel them out amongst ourselves?

    We could divvy them up according to the number of posts we've made. As of this post, I've made 622 posts...all of them witty and interesting...so I get 622 clips!

    That should take me through my RAAMmat sound-deadening project...

    If they are the Isuzu part # 8-94318803-1, you can use GM part # 94318803. Might be a few cents cheaper then at NAPA or what have you automotive store. These are the clips I used in the thread I wrote about outside door handle repair.

    Most auto parts stores carry these in one form or other.
    Sold the VX 11-21-07. It was fun while I had it!
    Thanks for all the help.

    Finding these for $1.44 to $2.43 each... Does that seem right? One would think you could buy a dozen for $2.50...
