3800 Door Clips or Inserts?

[J.E.T.]

Part # for the door panel clips? I've heard that once you pop out the panel, the door clips cannot be reused properly so I want to be prepared.

Is there a good / perfect Autozone part alternative?

this should work correctly.

I have never taken one that I have to autozone or ACE hardware to find a match but I bet there is... at least a close enough one.

The one's they sell at the regular auto parts stores come in pkg's of 2 for like $1.50 - a total rip off. The "help" section that's usually in these stores has a package of mixed ones that is a way better value. They are all pretty much the same, so even one's that are not actually correct will work. If you have the time to wait, I need some too. Maybe I can find a place to but them in bulk.

Thanks Chrys. I found them for $0.71 . I think thats EACH !

Ron, which one do we need? Part # 2015T or 2161T ?

I'm ordering today. Let me know how many you need. I'll give them to you when we meet up.

S/B 2161t, I know both work, but the 2161t does not have the extra ring in it so it will hold more snugly. I need about 25 which should be plenty to do both doors. McMaster carr has some nice sound insulation I'm picking up to do the doors on my car, that's why I need them other than the fact that the pass side is a little loose.

OK - I ordered them. I'll let you know when they come in and we can hook up.

Funny you ask that, I just bought some from Pep Boys today. There the kind that have the pin in the center that expand when you push them in. I didn't need that many so I got them there, but pep boys wants $1.79 for two; total ripoff. I'v got my front end all torn apart trying to fix some rattles, and get the tools out of there I dropped in there a year ago.
