Door Panel Clip

My door panels have some rubber padded clips like this, mostly in tough shape. Many have been replaced with wire only clips.

Anybody know where I can find them?

Also, the water dam has been molested with a dull paring knife. What plastic and adhesive is suitable for making a new one?

There's some of them on the panel also. Looks like there's supposed to be a little scrap of foam on it to replaced the molded rubber part.

I used peel and stick membrane to wrap the new clips also used the same stuff for the water dam. Cgsb poly or whatever it's equivalent is in the USA works well too

Napa has a show and tell book with all their clips and clamps in it. There are 3 versions of this clip. The Ford one is a bit longer than the Dodge one. It's just metal and doesn't have the anti-rattle rubber on it the original has. I guess I'll have to supply my own scrap of foam rubber.

Napa P/N = 665-2224

The Dorman part number I gave is actually for Ford panel retainers.

Even when I think they are ford ones, so far no rattle. I am picky about those stuff, and I didn't bother with putting a little foam on each clips. Instead I greased the clips well. No squeak, and way easier to install and remove the door panel.
And the panel is solid in place.
At napa Body supply I bought the bag that was for ford, cause I had more of them for my money vs/ chrysler's.
