as everyone knows the oem version of these clips are constantly breaking on the E46's , as they are made of toilet paper :mmm:

if nobody knows of a local suplier (besides the stealership ofc) guess im just gonna have to import..

From what I gather, it last quite a while since the cable tie gets wrapped around the metal part of the window winder. Either way, hopefully I'll have enough tim this weekend to do it. Will post some pics and/or comments once I'm done :thumbsup:

bought them off ebay for about R40 a clip, replaced both front doors on my E46.. they seem good quality nylon, now to see how long they last cant be worse than the crap bmw put in there...

seems to be where the originals always break
