Wanted: part number (or parts) 91 318...

[cddallara]

Realoem doesn't like my phone and the local dealer's parts guy is stumped (he knows the part, can't find the #):

I need (2) of the little double barbed clips that hold the fog light blanks to the valance on the bottom.

If you have the intact parts, that would be great, if not; a part number please?

Thanks!

What kind of e30 do you have, early or late?

^^^ it's none of those, we have that page printed out. Thanks though!

The piece is square, with square 'barbs' on either end, and goes between the blank and valance, snapping in to each piece.

In all reality, I can probably just ziptie it, but was hoping to find the correct pieces.

pretty sure its # 11.

Here is where they go:


Here is a crappy pic or two of what they look like (no screws involved):



You can kind of see both ends, how they snap into the square holes on the blank and valance.

So we ordered number 11 just to see what it was. It clearly shows it as an 'expanding nut' with a corresponding screw (number 10).

Lo and behold it was nothing of the sort. It was however the correct part.

Two less zip ties I have to use :D
