Plastic retainers V70-XC70 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be Bob on  Sat Aug 10 15:20 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Anybody know where I can get some of the plastic retainers that hold the front bumper fascia to the body?

I caught the bottom of the front bumper on a rock and popped a few out.

They are like black plastic grommets that you push a pin into the center of to lock it in place.

    If your dealer charges only $15, it sounds like a Volvo "sale". My dealer wanted $34.50 for a plastic "christmas tree style" replacement blind trim retainer. I bought a box of 50 for less than $8 on-line.

    Visit this web page: http://www.thecliplink.com/push_retainers.htm They carry all styles.

      This is why I go to boards like this. Sometimes one has to deal with those who don't mind wasting their time flaming someone instead of getting a life, but then there are folks like you who really help.

      Many Thanks!

      Thanks, but I was looking for something better than driving 40 minutes to pay $15 for 50 cents worth of parts...

        YOU AMAZE ME. You spent $40,000US for a new 2001XC and you can't afford $10.00 in clips. You're pathetic.

          I can easily afford it, but I value my time as well as my money (which is why I can afford the car in the first place).

          Personally, I think people who flame others for asking questions are pathetic.

          You may also want to check out a dictionary fot how to spell your name...

        Whilst grazing the local hardware stores for a spring for my storm door latch, I came across all sorts of odds and ends sweetly arranged in bins. Hit a few hardware stores, then maybe an auto parts jobber that supplies body shops.
