Guys, I've been searching realoem for the past hour and cannot seem to find the right part.

I've swapped my wood trim out for silver. Now, the "bolts" on the wood trim that hold it in place are secured as part of the trim. On the silver trim, it seems they can be removed (and have been by previous owner).

So I need to get some, but nothing on realoem seems to match. The part is the bits that go into part number 07149158194 which is the rubber/metal retainer on the actual doorcard

Can anyone help???

are you sure that you need bolts? if i remember correctly my ones had the metal looking pins. Like number 6 on the diagram?

Pretty sure they look like threaded bolts, rather than the pins that go to a point. I will get some photos this eve

The trim pieces are secured with the metal pins that just push into retainers you mentioned.

It is part number 6 required.

51416976220 looks totally different when you search it on google to the piece on realoem

Interesting. Seems to be only used for the saloon/touring trim pieces as the coupe uses the pins instead.
