Need part number for this door lock operating rod clip!

[skaletzelt]

I unfortunately broke this yellow clip for the door lock operating rod when I was trying to trying to reattach the interior door trim back. I can’t seem to find its part number to order replacement. I have the part number for the rod but it doesn’t seem to come with the yellow clip from what I can find. If someone can share the part number or place where I can get this that would be great.

This is not a Supra or G29 part number, which is why OP had trouble finding it. The official maintenance diagrams for both platforms show the rod with no clip, and you cannot buy this clip by trying to look up parts for these vehicles. Furthermore, the part number you provided is actually for the entire locking mechanism indicated as #1 on the G29 diagram. The Amazon product mfgr got this wrong as well.

There's no BMW part number for this clip documented in any material I can find.

I stand corrected, thank you! I kept finding references to the whole locking mechanism under this number, but this does seem to be the right number for the clip itself.

Very frustrating that a number would not be provided in any of the platform-specific parts diagrams. :/

I think you might be mistyping the part number or something. That part number is listed as the clip on pretty much every BMW parts site I use. The locking mech is a totally different part number

Eh, that's certainly possible. I'll review my search history for signs of dumbassery. Thanks.

To your credit, some of the part number updates/cross references/etc are really confusing.
