where to get retainer clips

[simmer]

2003 Lincoln LS v8

1. Where could i find the clips for the cabin air filter panel and the lower panel above the headlights and grill.

2. what about screw ones by the taillight and the left side of middle of trunk?

eBay or some times the 'help' section of the auto parts store will have them. Usually you can buy a box of 50 online for not much more than 5 pack you can find locally.

Think these clips are over prices, try going to your local Stealers and ask how much they want!

There are ways around it though ... I found actual Ford p/n rivets at a local Fastener store for under a dollar per piece.


Others have used 1/4 inch vinyl rivets, cheaper and available by the thousands.

They also sell that at Rock Auto.

Lowes also has them in their hardware section.
