Where can I get plastic clips?

Ok so I recently worked on my car and i noticed alot of plastic clips missing such as the one that holds all the plastic trim that goes over the engine.
These plastic clips also work for misc carpet pieces in the trunk.

So my question is where can I get these besides the dealer ship?

I looked at amazon but i really cant find anything good
Btw i didnt check the dealership price if anyone knows pricing or a good site to buy them please tell me

Thank you in advance

Find an online parts dealer (usually the web side of a real delaership) that has exploded part diagrams, get the part number, then search for the part number online.

I had a similar thing...my car was missing one of the cargo net clips. The seller was going to replace it, but I went ahead and ordered it instead of making a trip.

Its one of those basic things you need to be able to do if you want to try to fix things yourself. I replaced the front fender liners, foglights (I mean the whole assembly, not just the bulb), armrest cover, etc. on our RDX over the years by basically just searching for diagrams and part numbers. Next up for me is a rear strafe on the RDX, and maybe the bumper cover if I can find one already painted for a reasonable price.

I'm not sure exactly which ones you're talking about, but I got a ton of them on eBay for cheap. Also Z1 sells them relatively inexpensively.

Bigger NAPA stores carry ones that work better than the oem ones, take one over there to compare if they have a big fastener section.

A bit late in the game but just found my bag of clips I got at NAPA auto parts.
These actually work better than the oems, snap tighter and seem to hold better. It's NAPA Balkamp part#665-3153

thank you for everyones help

I actually went on ebay and purchased 25 clips for 2 dollars but the shipping was like 2 weeks which I did not mind.

These clips I purchased off ebay were perfect!

they even contain a little notch so that the first time you put them in they will be more secure its hard to explain these notches

I have compared the oem ones to these and they are exactly the same

I purchased these clips for 2 bucks just for ****s and giggles, if they were bad it was just 2 dollars

One day I was at the Nissan dealership and the guy at the parts counter just gave me a hand full of them. I was telling how my front chin spoiler got ripped off and I guess this is a very common thing. It was funny he kept them in a drawer right there, didn't even have to get up just opened the drawer and handed me a bunch.

I also would like to know where to get the clips to attach the cargo net (part number would be greatly appreciated). While Im at it, please provide the ebay link for the $2 dollar body clips that were an exact fit. Thanks
