Richard....that's the best post I've ever seen on clips and fasteners ...photos AND OEM part numbers...it doesn't get any easier than that. Thanks, that post is a keeper!

I know how frustrated I will be if the guy in the parts department gives me a runaround.
Hopefully members will find that clips/fasteners info useful.

Hi folks,

Just a little follow-up.

Today I went out to the bodyshop that I have been using for 16 yrs ( and highly recommend to others ) to buy some clips.

The manager got under my car, brought out his case of clips, pulled the five needed, put them on the car, and said 'There you go.'

No cost whatsoever.



Take that Lexus of Portland.

I have to add that one of the best resources I have found for finding part numbers is the Sewell website. They have exploded drawings of the entire car - so you can find the right fastener, replacement part, etc by number. You can order them there too - or use whatever resource you need. I replaced all of the engine undercovers with the correct fasteners (~$50 worth) recently but it is like it should be now. I have found several replacement parts - and know which ones to order now when I find one missing.

And you can always call, they will take care of you. I bought my set of the LED tails and 1 came in damaged. Sewell send the replacement unit quickly. Had to take pics and send back the unit with a supplied pre-paid UPS label, great stuff.
