Explained Retaining Clips on Audi VW Door Panel Trim Bumper

[@crookassassin]

Mannn, that was sooooo helpful. Thank you for taking the time to make a video on that. I live in Australia and they charge upwards of $15.00 per clip, so learning how to reset them and not break them is a gift!!! Cheers!

2 AUD per clip from VW dealerships - Part 6Q0868243

I sprayed WD40 on the clips before putting the door panel/card back (someone on KZbin uses a few drops of machine oil on each clip). Line up carefully (two people) and press in / little hit with base of the hand and you’ll hear it click in. Big problem I made was I didn’t notice there was a broken clip still in one of the holes!!! Make sure you have a few spare clips in case of accidents!

This video kept me from completely destroying my rear drivers side interior trim panel (2014 Beetle). Thanks so much for posting!

I have a special place in my pocket made specifically for these clips 🤓

[@dragoss7840]

Thanks for the video, I didn't have the tool but improvised by sticking 2 flathead screwdriver tips into the gap and turned them simultaneously until the clip popped open.

Thanks a heap for this video, I was really lost trying to figure it out...saved me from drilling it out!!

[@thedentchaser443]

Amazing, managed with 2 plate spanners and a screwdriver in between as a pivot point.

Thanks for the info pal... any advice for getting broken clips out of the door card if they have broken?

[@PetarFantastic]

Very helpful! I actually broke off the other part, the white one off the trim itself. It looks like ot is glued. I also ordered those clips, if you need some let me know :)

Plz make a video of installing the door panel I always mess up when trying to put the door card back on

[@d4rkd3v1l85]

Thank you. Clear and helpful

[@danielhess6261]

I should have found this video before! Thanks a lot! ;-)

[@Stuxen]

So where did you buy the tool?

[@rizzlerazzleuno4733]

Helpful. Thanks. When did VW Group start using this style clip and are they still being used in 2020? Seems like there is room for improvement. In the good old days door panels and interior trim was held on by metal (unbreakable) clips or Phillips screws.

Hi , where I can find the pincer dedicated for open clip ? Like your

[@mateovsw5114]

For me the beggiest problems is to put this special tool for retaining clips in gap between door and door panel. I can unpin maybe 2 clips? But others clips are too far to get them with that tool. Looks like i have same as Yours. Can u solve my problem?

How to you nstall the panel back?

[@sunkazz]

Push the clips in, together with the panel.

[@borisboris1549]

Thks werry much. It help me

[@KingZoneOne]

Over-engineered, just like everything else Audi/VW makes. How in the world is anyone supposed to get those tools AND their hands behind a door card when it's attached in order to undo those clips??

[@vincentohara2520]

LIGHTING!!!
