What are this things called

I've been up all night doing last minute preparations for cruising the coast and one of the things on my list was to put on my new arm rests that my fiancé bought me for my birthday two years ago. I removed my door panels and cleaned and painted them and when I tried to put them back on, I noticed that the little white plastic things that hold them on are pretty worn out, so much that the armrest screws and the little screw on the back of the door panel is pretty much all that's holding them on.What are these things called, and where might I find them? I tried to look on LMCs website but I don't know what they're called.

Also might I add that if anybody has never tried to remove/reinstall these things without the proper tool do it...it will make you rethink your life

Door panel clips. Any local parts store should have those on a help board or one of those turning tree thingys with all of the little odds and ends on them. Some stores have a body hardware book behind the counter that the parts man/lady can match up to what you have. It should be no big deal at all. Jim

Re: What are this things called

Go to your local chain parts store and ask where the "Help" products are. They sell blister packs with those interior studs in them. Bring one of yours to match it up.
