These are the cheap ass BMW black plastic pieces that are glued to the door panel at the top of the panel and fit into the 6 door clips up against the window rubber.
I have a number of them but some are broken and I know once I get my other door off some will break.
Please let me know what you have.
Thanks

Really?
I would love to see a p/n since BMW has not sold them for years and no one else has them either.
If they have them I am golden however I never saw that they did but please correct me if I missed them.
Thanks

Pelican parts is definitely the place to get parts like this. Below is a link a pic outlining the part numbers of each clip on the door panel. Not sure which one you're after.

whosyadadie01, thanks for mentioning realoem.com. It's gonna help so much with tracking down specific parts.

I guess I am not making myself clear. BMW DOES NOT SELL THIS PART. NO ONE DOES.
Look at the plastic clips below and you will see what I mean.
Realoem.com, Pelicanparts, getbmwparts.com ,etc etc etc do not have this part. I need it used off a trashed door panel.
Thanks

What you want is only sold as part of the door panel. Yes it frequently cracks and falls apart. Someone would have to removed it from a bad door panel that by some stroke of luck does not have a broken top clip rail... and not break it when removing it.
Good luck.

Yes I know that and that is why I am asking for the door rail or pieces there in.

you would be better off just 2 part epoxy glueing them back on i have fixed 15 or so door panels this way and they have held fine ....its cheaper than buying used door panels ....

You have to have more than 3 rail pieces to do that with and I don't.
I honestly would like to see if I could find someone around here that could make a press and use a technique to reproduce these in metal.
Did you ever notice that BMW didn't use this crap for the rear panel but used stamped steel which never fails?
Going green is an experiment that we the consumer pay for their mistakes and make no mistake about it this was a mistake just like the t-stat housing and radiator were/are...
