Default Anybody know where to get sunroof clips?

If anybody has any sunroof clips and or knows where to get them please please please let me know. I can't seem to find them anywhere. I need the little plastic clips not the triangle ones. Thank you!

are you talking about the ones that secure the headliner to the plastic sunroof panel? if so, i found a generic replacement at the hardware store. i did have to drill out the holes in the sunroof to 1/4" though but that was quick and easy. i can get a brand/part number tomorrow.

I would like to use an OEM part, but I would definitely like to check out your solution. That would be great if you could find that for me I would greatly appreciate it. I take it you had no luck finding the original part?

i didnt even bother looking for OEM, i figured it could be expensive or unavailable. i think i got 25 clips for like $2...

here is the part number you are looking for 477871053. they are $1.25 each from pelican/porsche.

That p/n was for a rivet. I need the latch that holds the sunroof to the roof. I'm getting closer I think I might call the local Porsche dealership and see if they can get them. I'm sure the price will be through the roof.

My Porsche dealer will match Pelicans prices, and drive the parts over. It wouldnt hurt to ask yours to do the same.

Pelican is $160 http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/...39%36%38%20All

But they list this for $64 http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/...OOF%20LATCH%2E

Same ish' part number, might want to call on that one.

And....I may have a spare set, do you ever come down to the Springs?
