Default Door panel retaining clips - forum help?

So I have been searching the web for the white door panel 'xmas trees' and their associated receivers for a C7. Looks like #3 on the diagram below, but it seems every online sellers uses the same database without a #3 listed? Anyone have any insight for me?

What am I missing - thanks team!

thanks all - ended up special ordering at the dealer. they are $3.45 and pretty unique. They use a barrell that stays in the door and the regular xmas tree pin. I think online sellers avoid due to how cheap they are, more effort than worth for a reseller......

anyhow, few days and will have. will deal with minor audio bass rattle until then

Just for reference, are these the ones you ordered?
GM OEM # 15960325
$9.69 for pack of 25

I believe these are the ones I ordered for my C5 door panels.

Those look very similar, would have to take all measurements. The factory ones have lots of rubber in them and a type of rubber o-ring?

These look pretty close to the ones you posted. When you get them and verify they're the correct ones, can you follow up with a part number since most of the schematics seem to leave out these clips.

Replaces GM: 22722860

http://www.txdashcovers.com/pogramolaldo1.html

This site seems to have a myriad of OEM plastic fasteners for a lot of vehicles.

Good luck... GUSTO

Jason, thanks for posting that.

Did they actually charge you $3.45 for each of them, or was it a multi pack?

I've found them here for $2.31, but it doesn't say if that is each or a multi pack either.

I'll probably pick up a few to have on hand. I had to change out the door control module on my C5 and discovered 4 or 5 were broken and whoever removed the door panel before just put tape on a couple of them to get the panel to stay put... barely! Of course it took 3 or 4 days for the pieces to come in.

Good luck, and again thanks... GUSTO
