Need panel attaching buttons

[James Morse]

I took off suicide door panels to put new ends on the cables that operate the suicide door latches. Some of the attaching buttons broke, so I need to get more of them.

N801925-S

I *think* that is the right Ford part number??

Anyone know where I can get these, if it's the right thing, or, should I just take one to auto parts store and try to match it?

Is this what they look like? https://www.amazon.com/Ford-Door-Panel-Clips-N801925-S/dp/B0040CTYLK

I checked the local parts stores and like you said, you would have to take yours in and match it up.

You might want to try a local paint supply place. Mine stocks all that stuff as well as paint.

That looks like what was used on my 88. Fairly common part. I found that in store they either come in 2 packs or with a bunch of other stuff you don't need.

I bought 2 20-packs from amazon for a few bucks.

No the two top discs that hold the panel are equal diameters, so they're not that part apparently. Will just take one with me and try to match it. Main thing is the diameter of them has to be right so they clip into the panel and don't fall out as you are trying to put it in.

A photo may help immensely.

Length 1"
Diameter of shaft looks like 3/16" in between the two top discs and a bit smaller diameter below them.
Two top discs not same diameter, sorry, top is 1/2", bottom one 7/16" looks like
Space between top discs looks like 1/16" or maybe 2mm
Leaves about 3/4" length for the christmas tree part that is below the discs
Diameter of christmas tree "branches" looks like 5/16"

Yep, i buy those in a box of 20 or 50 at the paint supply place. Cheaper than auto parts place.
