Re: Door Retainer Clips
my sisters 99, her door handle bolts were ripped out, so the only thing that was holding the door pannel on was the door unlock panel screw, the big clip that clips on the window and the panel clips. Hers were all shot so when she would close the door the panel at the bottom of the door would pull away about 6"s. When i went to fix her handle bolts i put all clips in, and the panel was held in tight, I almost could have gotten away w/o putting the handle screws back in. Once i put the screws in, I stuck a flat head inbetween the door and the door panel at the bottom to see how well they work. i was giving a fair amount of force for door panels and they didnt budge. The plastic was a good grade, they didnt feel cheap, and they put up a fight when i was trimming them down.
Cheat the system just run around to shops and go to the mechanics, not the serivce desk and ask them. At the GM stealership i used to work each mechanics had a huge bag of them and the black lug covers that were kind of free stuff the dealership gave to them to use. We had people just walk up and ask for a few they didnt care its free to them haha
