    I've removed the grill on my 04 dc enough times (all it really takes is once, lol) that most of the plastic clips that hold it to the body have broken apart upon removal. They're so brital that they just fall apart.

    Anyone know where I could find replacements? And please don't say "the dealer", as I'm sure they charge $5 a piece for them.

    Was hoping for something more specific.

    That's kinda like saying "the store"...

    I got my grill clips off of E bay. There are so many different options on there. Some say they are OEM but when you can get 50 clips for $2.56 they're most likely not OEM.

    Well, even if they aren't oem, they're cheap enough to replace each time you take the grill off. But I'm betting the cost difference has more to do with over inflating the oem price from a dealer vs. under inflating the non oem ones.

    And what, nobody wants to recommend Amazon? :)
