i thought those clips were those simple mushroom clips i get from the boot lining. but damn it's difficult to remove and i dont wanna try too hard before i break/snap/destroy anything.

i just want to remove it to give it a coat of paint and snap back on.
possible?

Use a flat head screw driver to prize the middle out, then the clip comes straight out. Pretty easy just don't be too heavy handed.

no, jam a fork or screwdriver into the clip to pull the middle of the clip out.

i broke one clip earlier in the day.
 


top left corner clip was busted
 


so i gotta try and remove the clips (4) at the corners with considerable force and a fork might make the job easier? looks like i gotta head down to the dealers for new clips. how do you remove the clips that are already busted? cut and clip your way through the bits and pieces?

anyone got a part number on these? or are these the same as those clips that holds the boot lining in place?

thank you
