    I tried several sources for body clips. Amazon, AutoZoo, OReilly, AdvanceAuto.......

    Ended up at the local Toyota Dealer. Yes, they are more expensive, but they fit properly and only cost <$1.50 each.

    Yeah, I’m ok with the dealership, but I would like to find a diagram to help figure out which ones I need.

    The Amazon kit above looks like it has all you will ever need.
    I got a similar kit and found I only used the 8mm pins with 4 tabs that expand such as:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GN3S9NG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    They fit tightly so I push the 4 tab part in with the pin removed and push the pin in and if really tight use a small hammer to tap in. Used on the front bumper area, front fender liners, mud flaps etc. Get the tool to remove them makes it easier as a screwdriver always is a pain and really need to pull the pin on 2 sides.

    Same. It's not like I'm buying 200 of them either. Only needed like 6 so the price is negligible if I know they'll work

    The green clip comes with the plastic trim. But you can use a door trim panel clip as a substitute.
