Where to find rocker panel clips?

I need help getting a hold of the clips that hold the back of the rocker trim to the quarter panel. They're round nylon discs that clip on to the studs welded on the quarter. The ones on mine were old and brittle and broke. If anyone can either point me where to find them or if someone has some decent used ones they wanna sell me I'd appreciate it!

Re: Where to find rocker panel clips?

Well I did some more searching on my own and managed to find some NOS ones for sale on ebay, only ones on there. In case any one in the future is looking for these pieces I can at least give you the part #10008788

Re: Where to find rocker panel clips?

These are discontinued under part number 1008788 but you can also get part #22506785 which is the same thing. I gave the part number to my local GM dealer and they ordered it for me. About $2 a piece or you could get a lot of 10 for less.
Here's a link.
