Panel Retainer Clip 9046705170

Genuine Subaru Body Fastener

Eliminate rattles and restore factory fitment with the authentic Subaru push-type panel clip. Part number 9046705170 locks plastic bumper corners, wheel-arch liners and under-tray shields to the chassis, sealing out water, dirt and road debris.

Key Benefits

• Perfect OEM fit – 18 mm head and 9 mm stem match Subaru factory panel holes precisely; no drilling or trimming.

• Durable nylon construction – UV-stabilised nylon 66 resists cracking from −40 °C to +120 °C and won’t corrode.

• One-step installation – simply press the clip into place; centre pin locks legs, ensuring a secure hold.

• Releasable design – pry the centre pin up with a trim tool for easy removal and reuse.

• Cost-effective repair – replace broken clips individually instead of entire panels.
