Default Anyone know what kind of retaining clip this is? and where to get one

They are from the door sills in my 2014 mustang, but i'm sure it's not the only thing these kind of clips are used on. Anyone know what they are called or where I can get some more? They have little spikes that hold them on really good onto a flat piece of plastic. Anyone think the ford dealership would have the whole clip assemblies for the sill plates without me having to buy the whole sill plate? (with the rubber coating etc). I bought some new illuminated sill plates and they have no clips and all the ones on my old ones broke off and I threw them out a while ago on accident.

those look like they might be it? But I can't tell because they are covered in rubber lol

well, searched online for about 5 hours, and even the ford dealership and ford bodyshop did not have these clips, and the parts shop "guessed" that what i want might be the little tiny dot on a diagram for 22 dollars for 4 and i would need 8. so i went to AAA fastners and they had the same clip! except without all the rubber that i wish it had like origonal, but better than nothing..

Go to your local pick n pull or junkyard and pull the sills, the clips on my 96 GT look very similar. If the clip just grabs onto a vertical metal seam (not sure how to word it, runs the length of the sill and meets it at a 90 lke this: L ) it should do the trick. an 05+ is very likely to use the same fasteners as yours
