    You can buy a pair of the interior door handle trims for like $9 on Amazon.

        I got you on the door handle trim and grill clamps. Let me know if you want to add it to your pile…

        EDIT: In a pinch you can use an old headlight pull for the cluster trim. Same shank size and thread pitch. Ask me how I know.

            - (1) the round metal nut that holds on the lower instrument cluster surround piece
            - (3, maybe 4) metal clips that hold on the grill and headlight covers
            - (1) interior door handle trim, I have one thats cracked and would like to replace it
            - (1, maybe 2) Seat retracting handles

            I included pics from realoem
            those knurled nuts are little fuckers. why did they settle on that design... good luck...

                  Thanks to those who have posted/ messaged me. I almost have all of it, and I know there will be more, so I will keep this updated.

                  Anyone have good Roundels? I really need a front one, but will take both. Eventually I will buy new ones, but new ones are lower on my list.

                  I think I have the other 2 parts ready to go, just havent picked them up yet

                      A friend has one, but I havent connected with him yet. I will let you know if I end up just wanting one from ya, thanks!

                      edit: forgot that I also need 2 more of the long bolts for my plastic bumper conversion. The metal bumper ones are too short!

                          When you install them just finger tighten them without any extra force. Then when removing them press the panel inward while turning the nut. That will relieve any pressure on the nut and it will back out freely without hassle.
