Interior trim clips

Postby Skrallex » Wed Apr 13, 2016 2:23 pm

Does anyone know where you can get the white clips for the dash trim? They look a bit like these but not quite the same, a bit rounder I think.

I couldn't find them through SCA and i'm a few pages in on ebay and can't find them, has anyone had any luck in the past?

Thanks

Hmm, I guess I'll give a mitsubishi dealer a call tomorrow? If they don't have them/can't get them I'll hit up a wreckers and see if I can get just the clips.

Yeah the cup holder section on mine only has 3 of 4 clips for some reason :S I'll let you know if I get a hold of some :P hopefully a wrecker will let me buy just the clips rather than a whole panel.

I lost one of my clips too. But I pulled the interior apart until I found it. It has to be there somewhere otherwise Mitsubishi is probably your best option

I'm missing at least 3, it's a second hand car so previous owner could have had dash apart previously too. Will contact Mitsubishi tomorrow, do you think I could call a dealer or do I have to contact Mitsubishi Australia?

That would be great! I don't know the part number unfortunately, I don't know that they have it printed on them? Also, the dash clips are different to the other trim clips ie. pillars.

Well I have my VIN so shouldn't be too hard to track them down, surely it's something kept in stock?

Emailed my nearest Mitsu dealer with a picture of the clip and my vin plate, they have 6 in stock for $3.35 each so I'll go grab all 6 :P

I thought it was bad enough they charge $16 for the floor panel switch holder but $3.35 for a tiny clip.

Yeah bit of a rip, but that's a dealer for you :P probably wouldn't be any cheaper from a wrecker, and you can't get them anywhere else :S Oh well, I put mine in and still have a couple left over :)

I also did my hidden GPS charging cable tonight, bonus the cable extends and reaches to the air vent where I have my phone cradle, so that's nice. Will get pics of it soon :)
