    NA Interior trim clips?

    There appears to be three different types of plastic clips to hold carpet and trim in an NA.

    Does anybody know the quantities of each clip required to make a full interior set?

    Not including the trunk.

    Thanks,

    Q

    I don't have access to my car at the moment so I've been trying to work this out from the parts manual



    I count 31 of these clips.
    21 for rear package tray
    8 for rear wall mat
    2 for floor carpet



    And 4 of these.
    2 for front scuff plate
    2 for rear quarter trim



    Can't find any of these.
    Sound right?

    I usually have clips left over, so I throw them in the glovebox until I find where I forgot to install them. I know the colored ones (besides black or tan - like the red LE ones or the blue ones from a 10ae) are hard or impossible to find new, so poaching them from a wrecked model is the route to go.

    I found black retainers/fasteners are Lowes, 2 for $1.19. It was for my trunk and I got the 1/4 inch size. I'm still hunting down decently priced(including shipping) tan retainers for the interior too.

    Thanks for the help. I've ordered some of the type 1 carpet ones in red from IL in Deutschland. Hope I got enough.
