Default Interior hatch piece replacements

I took of the interior plastic covers on my hatch to replace my tbl and the gray plastic pieces on the sides will not go back in. The clips are completely destroyed because, well, I'm an idiot...So other than a part out which I can't seem to find, are there any websites I can order those pieces from?

yeah trdsparks.com ken over there does a great job, as well as the people he works with.

i think each piece is around $48, you can check their website (under oem parts search).. i know the clips are part of the trim pieces in the hatch, and as you found out oops, they aren't that strong. oh well, its not that bad, could be worse

stealership would probably be around list price, trdsparks shows it at about $67 each (list price). The trdsparks price is $52, guess that went up. you're talking the interior trim on the hatch around the rear window, right? then each piece is $52. if you're talking the one with the handles that's $119. you could always check, see what the dealer is charging, but around here sparks was much lower.

hey i dont blame ya, but those trim piece clips that are molded in aren't that strong. its like they're supposed to go in ONE time and that's it!

here's the link to the parts http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...layCatalogid=0

Yeesh. Yup thats the part...Thank you for your help...I'm gonna try and rig it for the time being but I'll most likely just order it from Trdsparks when I get my paycheck. And once it goes in I'm never touching it again hahah but thanks again you were a big help.

oh i think it's hilarious too for a piece of plastic.. lol you want a good laugh? check out the price of the cargo cover! $300 or so! hahaha that's just carpeting, cardboard and plastic pins to hold it in the slots!
