Subject:Interior door fastening clips issue
From:Marshall Ruskin

Hi Everybody:

I am about to fix the "worlds slowest rear-wiper", and to do this I have to
remove the textured interior panel on the hatch. There are what seem like 15
or so "button-shaped" items that look like they function as clips to hold
the panel in place. They are also prevalent throughout the vehicle,
especially on the interior of the sliding door, etc.

However, I suspect they may be designed to be one-time-use items, and are
likely to break.

Is there are ready REASONABLE priced replacement source for these items? My
FLAPS wants over $3.00 EACH for them. My interior is that beige or light tan
color, the clips should match, or it will look weird.

BTW, my wifes wheelchair has really messed up the sliding door panel on the
inside. Is there a ready source for replacing these panels, or do I have to
fabricate one myself (should be easy)?

Cheers!
