Helping finding a Cowl Trim Clip

[rob250]

Hi Guys,

My car was in the garage last week and the mechanic has damaged the cowl trim clip (at least I think it's called that??) Part number 90467-06155 which is used to hold down part of the engine cover. I am not talking about the Engine Cover Trim Clips - this is a separate clip that is used to fasten down the plastic cover to the left of the engine.

I've managed to find the part here - https://www.ebay.com/itm/363904053284.

But for some reason I can't find it from a UK seller.

Does anyone have any idea where to buy one from in the UK?

Here is a picture of what I am looking for.

It's a bit of a mystery as to why these are so hard to come by. Dealers replace missing/damaged ones with different types to those originally fitted.

I haven't used them but vehicle-clips.com might be useful

See here:

Lexus Car Trim Clips, Fixings & Fasteners — VehicleClips

Part number 9046707201 is claimed to be for Lexus Engine covers and shields.

Prices are given in US $ but they are based in Newbury - there a phone number so I guess you could call them and ask for a £ price.

Let us know if that works!

Aliexpress might be worth a look....I'm guessing the clips are made in China anyway....

I’ve just checked and they don't sell them. 
 

The product number you gave is for the rivet clips that pop into place. I am looking for the cowl trim clip as shown in the picture.

I’ve searched ali express with the product number and nothing coming up. 

Any ideas?

It was just a thought....you could try another search for 'lexus clips' or similar and see if the photo matches.....
