Headliner - Speaker Cover Question

I just purchased a new headliner and they asked if I wanted new speaker covers...since I was switching my interior color, I said yes. Well, me being Polish, and dumb, I threw away the old speaker covers. I got these, however they didn't come w/ any of the clips. Does anybody know where I could get clips, or something that would work to connect the speaker cover to that panel? Thanks

i assume you are referring to the sail panels? - you can find the "clothing hooks" all over ebay.. some come with the mounting screws, others dont - probably wont cost more than 5 or 10 bucks..

Did you get yours from the thirdgenresource? That's where I got mine when I got the headliner. They sent a couple peices of velcro with it though. However I really wish I had the clips. On a hot day the velcro seperates from the plastic and you have to push it back on. Also on a hot day the fabric comes off the back of the panel. The original ones were stapled also on the back. I cured that buy putting some ducktape on the edges of rear of the panel. lol. Looks completely normal from the front and now the fabric dosn't come off. Also I used about 5 more peices of velcro on each panel and it's been sticking better. One side still comes off the trim everonce in a while though. I didn't prep the surface, that might be why it comes off the trim peice.

Looks like a trip to the junk yard. I had lots of fun putting the hooks onto the board.
