Dealer, they are a few pence each, but doubt they will be available anywhere else. My not-local dealer put some in a jiffy bag for me, after I paid over the phone by card.

If the parts guy is any good, he'll know what you need from a description of where it is and what it does. Mine is VERY good: Leger Subaru, Doncaster

Ah, sorry.

Dealers will sell them, but don't expect them to be cheap any more, IM seem to be trying to recoup their losses on the hatch sales by tripling parts prices.

Maybe find someone scrapping one, and ask for a few, posted?

Didn't know they went bust I knew they were no longer SELLING Scoobs, but last I heard, they were still servicing and doing parts. Some nice guys there.

Then I recently got a letter telling me that Burrills at the end of the Wheatley Hall Road, as used to have the Scoob dealership, have taken it on again.

About 6 miles closer to me now.

I listed part numbers in another thread before:

https://www.scoobynet.com/styling-36...er-please.html

But not so helpful unless you can get to a dealer. Or try looking the part unmber up on google, somewhere might sell them online.

Bought mine from a dealer to replace the ones that broke when removing skirts. These were NOT cheap, for the male and female part you need to clip the skirt back on was well over a quid each IIRC.

Thats great help, thank you.

I was just looking through some of those clips, seems some are quite similar so might be worth giving them a go if Subaru are so dear!

Not really: they are made to slide into a keyhole shaped hole in the doorcard, then press VERY firmly into the holes in the door. So firmly that they often rip the doorcard apart instead of coming out of the hole.

HAVE you rung any breakers? I would be doing so, they must have some, and they would be pence.

I had to buy a couple of these a few weeks back. Went to our Subaru dealer (well they used to be, now Daihatsu ) but still got the clips. I bought 2 for Daihatsu that are slightly bigger than Subaru ones and they work a treat.

So check with any dealer local to you (take in an example) and you never know, you may get something better and more sturdy.

Like I did
