alternative to hatch carpet clips
 
Need about 8 black carpet clips. Is there an alternative to the $5.75 EACH clips?

I think I remember reading up on this a bit ago. They're essentially just buttons that you could buy at a craft store and just replace the existing ones if you have a little time.

How about $2.50?

good call at $2.50. they're about the same price at Eagle Day. they're made by Tenax, who also make those screwy 911 cab top retainers.

Necro bump, but after the fourth clip finally broke on the driver side of my hatch carpet, I really needed replacements. I almost died looking at $5.75 for a small plastic clip. Thought about selling the Porsche. Thanks Cocacolakidd!

I ended up buying the whole lot of them used from a pelican member, and I always snag them when a 944/924 rolls in to the local junkyard.

post a picture and see if someone has extras . I pull all small parts and store in containers just for this issue.

Look at any auto store and they sell newer car-style carpet clips for a few cents each...
