Where to get replacement plastic trunk clips?

[pc500]

Broke a few installing 12v. Is there an easy generic replacement or will the SC sell a few?

Most auto parts will have a selection. I go to McMaster Carr and order various sizes by the box as I tend to get involved with neighbors vehicles often and they all use these fasteners

Do you happen to have the part # of the one that fits the rivian or the box?

I do not but on their website you would search automotive push pins, shank style and they will give you all the sizes to choose from that are available. I have not purchased any specifically for my R1t lately.

Thanks. I didn't find any there but with that search I found these. I think it will work? Worth a try I guess.

Someday, hopefully we get a parts manual for the R1T.

That’s a pretty nice assortment. May purchase one for myself just to have around to add to my parts

I am waiting to hear back from SC for some of these frunk panel replacement clips. I'll update if I'm able to buy some.

@WattTruckMatt Did you ever find replacement clips that work well?

Yes I got some from the SC. Rivian tax applies! $4 a clip. Probably worth 4 cents.

That’s a good set. I purchased another version and use it regularly. At least one of the types should fit the Rivian.

I'm going to bump this as I am in need of one replacement clip, like OP's photo. Anyone have a line on a suitable replacement?

works great, better than original

I eventually got some for like $4 a piece at the SC, but your source is probably better.

These didn’t work for me. These don’t have a large enough skinny area on the upper shaft. See photo. Easy to see the difference. I recommend avoiding these. I bought a different set to try.

Please report back on what you find. I broke one the last time I replaced my air filter and it's due to be replaced again soon. I'm also probably doing the horn upgrade in the next month or two and will likely break a few more.
