WANTED Strong door card clips

robbrooks · 23rd February 2022, 12:50

E bay is not a good place for these. I require a source for at least 8 door card clips. A supply that I have recently bought via e bay are pathetic and break under the slightest pressure. It's probably difficult to get a reliable strong OEM quality clip nowadays, but if anyone knows a source then please let me know.
Thank you

Originals are still fine, as long as you put a genuine fir tree clip in the top corner all will be well.

White and grey both available from Rimmers (@ circa £2 each..) but OEM??.
Anyone know, apart from the colour, what the difference is? Doing a bit of door work a few weeks back and busted a couple in the process (fortunately had some spares) but to me they appear to be the same dimensions/shape.

The door card clips are made from PP the fir tree clip that fits at the top corner is made from Acetal resin, as said previously, don’t trust eBay clips as they are made from inferior plastics and the shrinkage rates coupled with Chinese tooling will result in a poor fit.
