source for interior clips?

Does anyone know where I can find OEM type clips that hold on the door panels?

Just about any place that supplies body repair supplies have them, if not go to a body shop and ask them they can either order them or point you to were to ge them. NAPA has a large selection of interior clips. If you dont see it on the shelf ask for there catalog.

Hope this helps.

Yeah just look buy the body repair stuff they should be around there. I know that some of the clips in older cars arnt made anymore and you may have to go and deal with your local mazda dealer to get ahold of them.

Just go to pepboyz, autozone, advanced auto, any of those places and look for the red help parts. There will be some that will work, if not try a different store. I used some of the help clips for my own interior stuff to get it stuck back on correctly, didn't cost more than a couple of bucks and I have leftovers to boot. Good luck.

I'll check when I get home tonite. I had the box lying around, just saw it yesterday. It was a Help! part in a red blister package.

Get the Sunbeam tiger or MGB cataologue from Vic Brit. They have the same clip. You try Mazda?
The real challenge is getting the rubber "nipple" that fits in the panel hole, that the clip in turn fits into. These are usually shot on the original panel. Again the Tiger cat. from Vic Brit features a NYLON "nipple" (my term) that is MUCh more durable - and looks like it would fit.
