Default In need of 3 clips for middle door skin/card

Does anybody have 3 extra metal tabs that hold the middle section of the door skin/card in place that they can part with?

If so please let me know what you need for them.

Thanks in advance

The problem is the the door "skin" is the aluminum skin that covers the outer part of the door. The door "card" is also known as the "door Panel" and is the composite fitment that decorates the inner surface of the door. And, the insert that decorates the cental part of the door panel ithe "insert," at least in my mind. Then, the clips that hold the door card or panel, and the insert, in place are all plastic, and not metel.

So, what is it that you are inquiring about???

If it is the plastic clips that you need, I buy them by the hundreds for my projects and I'll send you a few. Let me know. If not, then????

Are you talking about the flat metal clips that hold the bottom of the leather insert on the inside of the door panel?

The metal clips are 928 555 327 02 and we sell for $1.50 each.
The plastic clips on the pre 86 cars are special to the door card and the part number is 999 951 559 40 or you can use the more common white clip 433 867 299 A. Less than a $1 each.

for us newbies to the 928 world - I tried to replace the white plugs but cannot figure out how to remove the old broken ones. Any assistance would be appreciated.

What you need to do is break off the part of the plastic clip that protrudes leaving the head in the hole. Then use your needle nose pliers to fish the head out. They will turn sideways and then the notch can be used to fit them sideways throught the mounting hole.

I thought you just twist them out the same way as you would twist a new one in.

That's what I thought also, but it didn't work for me recently when I did both of the door panels in the 90 GT. I think the main problem was that they will not tilt over enough after they are put in to be able to have one point of the notched head start back up through the hole in order to twist the rest of it out.

Jerry, thanks for the info. It was easier to get the new ones in than the old ones out.

Right on, Kieth. And, I was fairly certain that that was the point of your original inquiry.
