Hi all,
I have these retaining clips I removed from the front wheel arch of my MC Mondeo. Can any of the gurus identify the part numbers for replacements from Ford (or other supplier) or failing that even teach me the correct terminology for describing them? I have spent hours on Google image search trying to match them on appearance but the first one in particular has me stumped. Here are their locations on the car (Titanium with side skirts): Description: A I think is called a rivet clip. Sorry for no measurements. It fixes the end cap/mini mud spat onto the side skirt from below, and is very meaty (took a lot of effort to extract the push pin during removal). Note the domed shape of the head. B is a Christmas tree clip, measures approx 16mm dia. top and 17mm long. I have found that Champion TF4 from Repco look about the right size. Two of these are embedded in the front face of the end cap/mini mud spat holding it to the side skirt. C is the two parts of what I think is described as a buckle-type push clip which might have the part number W713331-S330. Head diameter is approx 18mm. These are used in multiple locations to hold the lining inside the wheel well. TIA

If you take this post to your local Ford Parts department, they will be able to sort this out for you! The pictures and details is all they will need to source for you. Also, maybe bring your VIN Number also...
Keep the receipts and charge back to the insurer...

True, I could do it that way. Was thinking I might need to specifically tell the insurer to source X Y & Z, the thought hadn't occurred to do the other way around. Anyway I've been wondering for a long time, since I see replacement clips for sale on ebay but wasn't confident which are the right ones...

For those playing at home...
C part number is W713610-S300 and is labelled only "PIN - TRIM". Retail price from Ford is $11 each! A and B are not available individually but come as a set with the skirt end cap. Its P/N is AM7S7J10175AB (for left side) and the quoted cost would be $71.26. |

In the end I decided to buy the parts from the local dealer (and charge back) as ope126 suggested, so I could demonstrate to the repairer.
Expensive plastic... The packing slip is fun reading, and seems to offer some part numbers for the two mystery clips. I didn't have much luck just now on Google though. It's probably superfluous but I'd really like to be able to source replacements independently in case it's ever needed. |

Great that you got the parts.
However I am at a loss to understand why a quality panel / repair shop could not locate / supply the correct parts for your repair...

I think the hint is in your choice of words...
