Does anyone have the part number for the tailgate door card trim fasteners? They are little red plastic clips and I can't find anything at the major auto parts places that seem to fit.
Thanks
Alan

Thanks Willie, is that the LR part number or just ABs?

 

thats the LR #

 

I looked all over town for those--at every store. That is Land Rover specific. Atlantic British has them.
The dealer had them too. He wanted $5.20 each.

That's justifiable! The plant that makes those clips is located on a bog marsh in Scotland and to get them to the Land Rover assembly plant they must make the trip by horse drawn wagons pulled along the rutted roads built by the Romans but it get's easier after they cross Haydrian's wall!

At the plant in Solihul the are used in the cars and the extras are shipped by clipper ships to the colonies.

Well at least that is what the dealer told me!

 

I just laughed. He had a bag of them in his hand and I needed 10. So when he said $5.20 I said great I'll take them. So with tax it was well over $50, I said--I thought you wanted $5.20 for the whole bag. I imagine you could use pop rivets to get er done.
The way those are made is by taking a 2 foot cube of solid plastic. Then they enter the 4 axis cad machine where they are milled out individually. The reason the heads get brittle and shatter is because the machine marks can transfer the stress to the failure point if they were out of spec. by just a few microns. The reason they are so hard to find is because NASA has been using them to hold on the nose cone foam. With great success of course.
