    Hello,

    I need to replace the retaining clips for front bumper trim fillers on my 1995 1/2 tacoma, 2.4L, RWD, manual. According my local Toyota dealer, the plate part numbers are 52512-35010 and 52513-35010 and the clip part number is 53245A. They say the clips have been discontinued. Looked a lot online (ebay, Amazon, carparts, etc.) and couldn't find anything. Thinking about a salvage yard, but not sure if it's worth getting plastic clips from a salvage yard. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    He's looking for the clips that connect the fillers. Those are for the grill, the others are flat and more like, lock in.

    I ended up buying a new grille and trim filler retaining clips were included (some aftermarket grilles include the clips and some don't). I attached a couple of pictures of the trim filler retaining clips.
