Reveal Molding clips

Does anyone know of a QUICK source for the reveal molding clips that hold the trim around the front glass?

I am due for a windshield tomorrow, and i have just been informed that there could be issues with these clips needing to be replaced. Called the dealer and he informed me that he could get them and they were only about $10.00 but it might take 5 days or more to get them. If I don't get this done now, I am almost certain that the money will be spent elsewhere.

Door rubber

Does anyone know of a good source for window door and t-top rubber? I know my hatch needs to be replaced and I suspect my t-tops do as well.

Merged threads. No need for 2 threads asking the same basic question.

You can buy them from the same place you get all Z parts... MSA, BDA, Nissan, etc. Clicky: https://www.zdriver.com/forums/240z-280zxt-s30-s130-tech-tips-275/where-buy-parts-your-280zx-18264/

Wow! That link is like saying "check out the yellow pages". Nothing specific at all. I was sorta hoping for someone's testimony to the excellent support and service or the great deals they got from this company or that company.

I thought my previous post was pretty helpful... guess not. You didn't mention the need for company reviews (which isn't going to help get the clips today).

MSA (MOTORSPORT AUTO) and BDA (BLACK DRAGON AUTO) are the two huge Z parts supply companies. TONS of people have dealt w/ them. But since they are not in Alabama, you're in the same boat as the Nissan dealer. I would be surprised if the glass company didn't have the clips... did you ask them?

Yeah, they gave me the age old answer, "we will have to wait until blah blah blah", and i really hate to delay this. Anyway, if I had been able to get at someone earlier, I might have considered overnight. Oh well, better luck next time.

I do appreciate the input, and I don't mean to criticize when I say...that link listed like every parts dealer from coast to coast and even some in Canada. It was almost like google results. I was looking for a "go to this place, and ask for this guy" sort of answer.

Anyway, no harm no foul. Now I have a list that I can look thru at my leisure.
