    where to buy exterior trim clips?

    i can't find the clips i need anywhere. i look on realoem and they don't even have the part number listed. i need the push in clip that sits inside the smaller trim piece.

    If you're talking about the fender trim, the clip comes in the trim.

        I found some on pelican parts when I repainted my trim. I feel like BMW used all sorts of different clips for e30s. Not all the ones I got worked but luckily I ordered more than I needed just incase that happened and it worked.

        Here are some part numbers that might help you out:
        Moulding Clip: 51-13-1-829-904-M58
        Grommet: 51-12-1-867-907-M58

        Hope this helps,

          Rsgm:
          Both of those parts you listed I have. I'm talking about the clip that pushes into the grommet.
          I'll try to take a pic today to better explain what I'm looking for. It's not shown in any reaoem diagram

              I had the same problems with mine.. except my broken clip was the one at the end, thats part of the trim. I ended up buying new trim because I couldnt find that clip anywhere for sale :?

                  Ima repaint my car soon and I'm gonna need to take out those side mouldings and I'm sure one or two of those clips will get damaged so I need to know where to buy these clips as well!
