So I recently replace the regulator in my door and some of the old clips in the door broke into pieces. I am looking for a place to get replacements.I called up Mazda and they have them.... for $2 a clip..... id rather not have to go running to them for them.

Anyone got any place I can grab some that work?

 

Honestly... just dont be a cheap *** and pay the 2 bucks per clip. (This wasn't meant as an insult, but I know it sounds like one!)

Be glad that Mazda even still has any, cause pretty soon they'll be NLA.

In the mean time, you can try the "HELP" sections of autozone and oreilly... but dont expect anything perfect... you might get something that will get close and you'll just have to modify it. My time is worth more than that... lol I just paid like 20 bucks for a few of those clips for my ceiling panel for the vert! But they went in, in about 45 seconds. Done deal.

 

you might wanna measure an FC one, and make sure its the same but the FD one should work

the "help" section clips from dorman are a joke, don't waste your time or money on them. they intentionally use brittle material that may go in if you are super careful but will break as soon as you attempt to take it back out.

 

Those look to be an exact match but I will measure and dbl check again tomorrow.

 

I just measured one as I am in need of some as well. They seem to be a 100% match.

Pretty helpful little website!
