Public Service Announcement: Be careful when you pop these out, as they can only be used once. It looks like the little tabs or fins bend backward and break off upon removal. And once removed, they need to be replaced.

But does anybody know what the part number (or official part name) is for these little purple clips? I must be searching for the wrong keywords because none of my online queries are returning applicable/matching results. I'd love to buy a pack of 6, now that I need to replace 3 loose-fitting ones.

Say it ain't so! Called the dealer parts department, and the reason I'm having no luck finding the rivet clips sold separately is because they come with the ($268) rubber weatherstripping. Not available as standalone parts (even though they are easily removable from the rubber seal and are only anchored by a T-shaped foot). They recommended I try to adapt something generic from an auto parts store.

Just closing the loop with a happy ending. I stopped by the local Porsche approved body shop, and sure enough they had bunches of these purple retaining clips. I only needed 3, but they gave me 4 just in case and declined any compensation. Thank you Jim Ellis Porsche Collision Center!
