Does anybody know where I can source the little plastic clip that holds the inner mirror cover/ vent. I broke mine the other day while replacing the mirror. Looked on quite a few sites but to no avail!
Thanks

If it's a monaro (or vxr8 if its the same) I used these :-

Needed to trim the tops of the "V" bit down a bit to allow it to clip behind the metal but is holding fine now.

EDIT: Basically the clip arrives as on the right, and need to file the red section down as on the left so it's the same thickness as the thin section. I used a needle file.

The ones in Fizzys post look a lot like I remember them.

After some research, I think this is the part number. 90459628

Sort of cross referenced it from a Pontiac GTO.
