Part numbers needed for rocker panel retainers...

[6500rpm]

A while back there was a thread about color matching the grey rocker panel, door trim panels, bumper extension parts and I'm fairly sure shodded or bpd1151 posted the part numbers for the plastic retainers that hold the panels in place. For the life of me I can't find the thread and the dealer is only showing them as part of the complete panel(s).

Mike (bpd) color matched his, I recently hit a log and destroyed my chin spoiler but was able to fiberglass it back, gave it several coats of Rustolium truck bed liner to keep the rock chips down, and top coated it with SEM trim black. I want to do the rest of the lower panels to match but I want to have extra retainers on hand as they tend to break on removal.

If anyone knows the thread I'm referring to, knows p/n's for the retainers, or where to find them please throw me a bone. I've got a free week coming and like to knock this out.

Thanks in advance

Are you talking about the balck plastic stuffs on the doors and on the inside? I'll be happy to look, but I'm uncertain what I'm looking for. Can you take pictures of what your speaking of please?

Yes, the plastic rocker covers, the door trim panels just above them. The picture in IDS/fordtechservice at work clearly shows the trim panels and a bazillion retainers (looks to be 3 or 4 styles), but no part number in the p/n column. The parts department at the local dealer that we get Ford parts from doesn't show a listing either, but told me if I break any, to bring them by and see if we can match them up with what's in the parts bin. I'm taking a long vacation week after the 4th and plan on pulling them and shooting with SEM trim black after prep work is done. I could have sworn shodded listed part numbers once upon a time, but since the forum changed I can only see/ search posts so far back.

My quick search this evening came up bare. Sorry.

my Google search says you might be looking at like a auveco 21522 and ford clip 6g1z-54101-82-a? They look familiar.

Alright, I was able to remove the door and rocker panel moldings intact, got things painted and back on. Johnbigdog, those particular clips are not used but I did take pictures and will edit things in (laptop took a dump, so I'm making friends with my tablet for now).
As for all (4) door moldings, it looks like they use p/n W715201-S300 and one really strange metal small pin style.
Bottom of the rocker panels look like these-W716350-S300.
The upper retainers on the rocker trim are unlike anything I can find listed on line, but considering my cars daily driven and 8 years old, with a little patience I was able to get all released intact.

Patience is a virtue as they say......

Great job in not only their successful removal, but for locating and posting the part #'s you did.

I'm sure someone will find them useful as time goes by.
