Default Rear fender clips leaking into rear cargo area

So my rear clips and seals are no longer keeping the water out i need to replace all of them on both sides. I was wondering if anyone came up with a good replacement seal or just buy OEM if i can find them .

Thank you
Steve

Put a dab of RTV sealant on each clip or hole before putting the rear fender back on.
might as well remove the entire rear liner on both sides and spray undercoating too. Cuts down on all kinds of road noise.

Were you able to get the fenders off without breaking the tangs on the clips? Looks like they are 'one way', in only.

Thanks Tainter that undercoating idea is brilliant! I sorta had the same rtv thought I might just try that.

I have the interior mostly out right now so I can see the clips I am able to colaps them and push them through without breaking them.

Kinda figured that would be the only way after seeing the picture of the gripping tangs. Let us know if you come up with a part number and vendor. Thanks

I have no idea, however if you check the price, they are selling for $4-$9 each online. I would think 10 would be enough, maybe the OP could chime in to verify. Btw, the seller is accepting offers too.
