What are you guys are using? Each door seal has two of these plastic studs for holding the door seal in place in the upper A-pillar area. What will work? Any Napa or ..... part number I can use? Mine are missing and I finally found the spot where the water gets in  Any info is great. I did not find any information with search. Thanks |

Yes, I did see it, but one of the used clips is cracked in the center and the new clips are on the other side of the planet. I was hoping there is a similar clip which could be used. I know the square head is important for the support of the seal. |

Nothing in the "help" section? Usually to can find something with a round head that could be trimmed to fit. The hard part is finding the right size to fit the hole in the steel.
