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

http://www.txdashcovers.com/19yutasujido.html

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.

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

Hey, so it appears that those door clips have been discontinued… I have been able to find one site that carries them. A bit confused because with it being discontinued, it says that it was replaced by part number 11602393
But when I look up that part number it’s number two on the diagram and it shows that it fits 2020 through 2025 Corvettes

just to give an update if there’s any other people like me scouring the Internet to find the appropriate clips for their C7 door panel
