Interior door handle screw .. cover... caps?

Post by Tonymeister » Fri Jun 11, 2021 4:54 pm

Given that I clearly have no idea how to succinctly describe this part, Google isn't yielding any help. Can anybody let me know where I can find some of these caps that top the door screws behind the interior door handles? Or, at least, let me know what to search for? My car came without any.

Thanks!

They’re often found underneath the seats as they can ping out if the door’s closed a bit hard, a blob of silicone keeps them in.
If you can’t find them there, you can find them here https://www.realoem.com/ :thumbsup:

Came inside of a week & fitted easily, check for the indentation on the bottom & fit that bit first then effectively press in till it pops/clicks :thumbsup:
