FYI on Interior clips

[16vdohcturboawd]

Long story short I got my windows tinted and replaced all my speakers and broke some clips in the process. The ones on the third brake light trim cover and the access panels for the rear speakers. I called the local dodge dealer and the tan ones I need are like $5ea and are discontinued and the gray ones are still available but at the $5ea price. I work at a Toyota dealer and after pawing through the parts drawers for a few minutes I came across some that are almost exactly the same and work great instead and the greatest part is they are only $0.74ea list. They are grayish black so Ill have to paint mine at some point but most DSMs do have the gray interior so they work well. The part number is 90467-A0016-C0. I don't know how many of you have broken these but I know on my car all I did was touch them and they were so brittle they broke into little pieces and paying $5ea for them is ridiculous. I didnt check how much they were at Mitsu as our local dealer is a PITA.

Do you have a picture of the clip you're talking about?

Nice find. When I was working at oriellys when I was younger, I went through tons of injector seals and found that 86 toyota celica's use the same injector seals as DSM's. I just bought 4 sets enough to do all 4 injectors for 13 bucks.

Heres a pic with the remnants of the old one next to it. Upon further review these clips are exactly the same, there are no differences beside color between them.

The 90467-A0016-B2 is a grayish black color and the 90467-A0016-C0 is black. Im sure there must be tan version through Toyota but I'll have to do some research but don't go to the Dodge or Mitsu dealer and pay $5 a clip, if you need these just walk on down to Toyota with that part number and get them for $0.74ea or cheaper if you call me.

Are these the same ones that hold the inner fender shroud to the back bumper?

 

[16vdohcturboawd]

Not sure, I can check for you tomorrow though.

Please check, great find, looks like we owe you $5.
Maybe a drink at the shootout or some other time when I actually have $5.

Thanks again.

If they are the same clips all over the front bumper this is good to know, verify this yet?!
