Dash and Door Replacement Clips

I'm needing to get some dash panel and door panel clips so I can eliminate some rattles but wanted to see if these were the right ones.

For the dash cover I found part number 700-751 but unsure if these are right.

I'm pretty sure the ones for the door are correct part number 700-399

Do these look like the right ones? Thoughts?

Our trucks use a spring steel clip. The Ford clips work.

Yep. I've picked up a few boxes from AutoZone and other parts retailers to have some on hand.

I'd like to find a better way to fasten the panels to the door but nothing's come to mind yet.

Theres not realy any other good way to attach them. About the only other way is sheet metal screws threw the panel.

I threw a mint set of panels on a burn pill because a PI sheet metal screwed them down rather than buy the clips.

BTW PI means previous idiot

Wow, so glad I found this thread. A box of 50 clips for about $8.50. Dodge wanted to sell them to me for $12 a clip!

The PI did that on my truck as well. No new panels yet, so they are still screwed in. I wish Dodge used the GM type instead of the sorry Ford type clips,
