Rear Panel Clips

[logman]

Yeah, I'm going to load up on them for the future... half of them stuck in the body panel, and the other half popped out. The ones stuck in the metal were a PAIN to get out without that special tool... I pretty much destroyed them. Now my passenger side panel is only hanging on by 4 or 5 of them, and the top handle...

I took pictures of the whole 6.5" speaker install, I'm going to post pictures as soon as I can get them off my camera.

IF you have a local autobody shop supplier in town, and IF they are all the same clips that you need, you might find that it is a GM part. I know for the front door panels, they had a GM part number's.

Well, after looking at the VX parts list that is available for downloading here, I see there are 4 different kind of clips for each inside rear panel. If you drop the first and last digit of the VX part number, you will have a GM part number. You can go by a autobody jobber shop, or a GM dealer, (dealer prices) bet you will find your clips, or you can order from Merlin and wait a week to a month if they are not in stock. Depends how fast you want to finish the job.

I just finished my front speaker replacement today, and I found that nissan maxima clips work great! they are identical. As for the rear panels, I had to order replacements from Merlin (who was VERY helpful btw!)
