Well, they do call it a 'stealership' for a reason, right? I'm looking a the estimate now (had to pull it to make sure I wasn't misremembering) - yep, 4 trunk clips (interior trim), $465.63. That was in December 2022. Maybe if I'd asked for an estimate on the net + clips I may have gotten a different response.

Ordinarily, I have no complaints with these guys but that was crazy and told them as much.

They must have been replacing the full side panels. That’s wild! But we’ve got Dave to take care of us anyway

LOL, you'd think, right? Except, I pointed out exactly what I wanted - but maybe they misunderstood. And you're right, we've got Dave! Thanks Dave - can't wait to install mine!

Thanks guys. I went to the dealership many months ago to ask about them too. It for for my buddy's car, not mine. I was told that they/clips were not available separately, you had to purchase the entire net/frame assembly. It was somewhere around $172.00USD/side!

Interestingly, I am running an ad on eBay for the clips and haven't had ONE person even look at them, lol. And YES, I am charging more for them via eBay (the eBay fees are getting a little crazy).

Everybody should have their clips by now. If that is not the case, please let me know!

I mailed them from my house and guessed that three stamps would be enough. Nothing has been returned, but wanted to check.

Good luck with that. anything over 1/4" thick requires First Class Package / Ground Advantage postage.

Doesn't seem that's the case.
