Polarity Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Sorry for the vague title, but I really don't know what these items are called. On the 280ZX they are used to hold the trim that goes along the side of the windshield up to the roof. They are little plastic pieces that I was unable to remove without breaking. Whatever those are called, I was wondering where I could pick up some new ones. If no one knows offhand what I'm talking about I'll take some pictures of it this afternoon. -polarity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyuri Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The exterior trim? Every time I've seen people talking about those, they just call them [windshield] trim clips. Nissan calls them (I believe I have the right ones here) 72727-W1000 "clips". Item #7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarity Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 No this is the trim inside the car, it runs from the dash to the windshield, and is held in place by two little plastic clips -polarity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyuri Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The interior A pillar trim is normally, so far as I can tell, held on with screws. Lists 08530-51642 "screw-tapping M5" item #4 and 08530-51620 "screw-tapping M5" item #5. My vote is to go down to the hardware store and pick up some M5 tapping screws. Looks like, from my hardware, a 15-20mm oval head is the ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyuri Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Or (again assuming the interior A pillar stuff), what I just did this morning: a pack of #10x3/4" oval head phillips sheet metal screws. 93 cents + tax at Lowe's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
