I checked 914Rubber first and didn't see them. Probably because they are available just at $3.30 each (I need 18 of them) it kills me to buy OEM.

Has anyone found a Dorman part number or similar? Thanks in advance.

They are plastic cups/sockets that go into holes in the door and the retaining clips on the door panel snap into them.

You could look from some GM style door panel clips that push into the holes in the door without any cup or socket. Personally I hate the GM style since they all seem to stay attached to the door and pull out of the door panel but they are cheap.

Upon further research 914Rubber does sell what I need.

When I first looked I was looking for the cup bushing but like referenced above Mark has the clip to do double duty.

Thanks!

VW uses a rubber version for their late model door panels. Not sure if they are the same size though.

I would not think so because those holes are small. The holes for the door panel bushes are much larger (1/4 inch or more).
