Crazy Clip Trim Pin $$'s

Post by fish »

Was looking to pick up a few of the push pin clips that Honda uses on our Forza's body panels.
These are small and could be easily lost or broken during scooter maintenance work.
The Honda parts places want as little as $.60 each for them + postage....and as much as $3.50 for each +postage. That seems crazy for a tiny piece of Chinese nylon but I also
found sellers asking nearly $10 for one - since it fits a Gold Wing!
If you can wait until mid Feb. you can buy a bunch for $10 from China or Korea.
I think I've found a pretty good source for them here in the States at a fair price.
I see three different sizes of these push pins (not to be confused with "pry" pins) on the Forza - with 3 different part #'s.
I did not order my pins from a HONDA parts house so they will not come in a HONDA bag...I will post the results when I get them in the mail.
For the cost of a few of those pins you could buy a whole panel. Goofy.

Just arrived today, took a month and only cost 4-6 dollars for a bag. These are 7mm hole and you'll want 6mm. I might not see the 6mm for several more weeks but I had both on order. LOL at the shipping label on the bag and it was a gift of cell phone parts :roll: oops I'm outside my parameters, see ya
