Default Door Clips LH vs. RH ??? = SAME???

I am missing a clip in my passenger side door and wanted to order a new one...but the vendor has left and right side clips. I think these have to be the same right? There are 5 in the driver door and one in the passenger door...after looking at them for a while the single passenger door does have the snaps on the other side. But seems like it would work either way.

Isn't the clip just pinning one rod to another? It has been a while since I looked in the door pannel and I don't have the car with me while I work hard at not working.

Are these really the same thing or specific?

One vendors site...http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/sear...=false&GiftID=

I am certain to order the wrong thing either way...
Thanks

They appear to be $5.50 a set. Order a left and a right set for $11, replace them all and be done with it.

Yea I don't want to waste a bunch of parts or keep junk laying around so I prefer to just get the right one the first time.

Also people come here to learn...details man, details.

Got the AIM? If your clips are designated right and left and have GM part numbers specifying left and right, they mean exactly that.

There are lefts and rights in each door. The lock rods have one of each. That is why I said replace them all. EXACTLY which one are you missing?
