Default Clips...All sorts of body clips for Subi's

Be nice if this could be made a sticky.
Came across this guy sort of through Corry who sells just about everything you could want as far as clips, plugs, nuts etc, he is mobile only & will usually come to you, lives north of the river & name is Troy...Mob 0434491582
Usually about $10 for a pack of 10.........Way cheaper that Subaru

Yeah and just about everything he sells is made in Aus too, only the tape & cable ties made elsewhere.
He came to my place tonight, got the clips I needed............amazing van, much like the Snapon ones.

You'd need to have the car there or take some samples (nothing Subaru specific)but I found what I needed by him coming to my place & trying different types but it looks like he has the bumper clips....I got front inner guard & side skirt clips by trial & error, he's happy to let you open the packs & try them.

Try another dealer - they arent that expensive - I only paid about $1.20 each about 6 months ago
Maybe $5.50 for a bag of (5 or 6) clips.

God. Go buy the tiny bike ones from Suzuki. Bout 4 bucks a pop. Think you get ripped off on parts for cars. Bikes are way worse.

What clips do you need Dan? I have some spare from last time I got in touch with JNS.

Some like this

which I used to keep my side skirts on

and this

which I used on sections of the front bumper and also a couple of interior bits


They have other contact details, if you can't get through to Troy

PM me if you want to try the clips I've got.

All good, Troy was out of signal at the Dowerin trade show.

Excellent setup, dont ever bother ringing Subaru or going to any other store for clips and fasteners. Cheap, good service, and he is mobile so comes to you!
