    Default Map pocket repair

    I have a 1985 lx convertible. Like every interior, the mp pocket elastic died. I am going to take them to a upholsterer to have the elastic replaced. I lost a few of the retaining clips (picture below) when i removed them. Any one know of a source to get these clips?

    Any good upholstery shop will be able to get the correct clips or something else that works just fine. They are nothing more than a specific type of push nut. Just with the slot rather than a round hole for a typical bolt or stud. Good Luck!

    Thanks for the tip. That's something we all can do ourselves.
