Door Panel Retainer Clips Source?

Hi All!
For our 2006 HHR, we need door panel retainer clips; part number 11562256. I've tried several "universal" from auto stores, but none fit. Also tried were some from ebay & Amazon claiming to fit. No luck.
GM parts sources: $10.71 each, plus postage. (Local dealer: $14.95 each)

Have any of you found a good source for the clips, or perhaps a generic clip that works on this car?

Thanks for helping me save some money!
Paul
PS: Also looking for touch up paint bottle cheap, but it appears those days are long gone for any color. $15.00 for 1/2 ounce.

Door clips , any pick a part yard , best source from Cobalts , Pontiac G5s as for touch up paint, I just apply a dab of any black paint to stone chips, the Carbon Flash Metallic doesn’t match and it is expensive if you can find it!

The white one matches the part number posted.

I found them on Ebay. Bag of 10 $14.50 free shipping. Just GoOgle the part number.

Thank You guys for helping. I appreciate it very much.
The clips look like the green ones or the black two-piece one that PulpFriction showed, but the challenge is if the dimensions match. I've purchased several that looked correct, but missed n size.
Thanks DonBrew for the link. Amazing how much more these cost versus ones that fit other cars. But expensive is better than not having them.

Thanks Again Guys,

$14.50 for 10 is expensive? For the white/black one, listed as "Two part nylon door panel retainers. Black Nylon Pin & White Nylon Grommet, Pin Top Head. Diameter: 19mm, Pin Bottom Head. Diameter: 19.5mm, Pin Stem Length: 22mm, Grommet Flange Diameter: 24mm, Grommet Stem Length: 12mm, Fits Into 9mm Hole"
If they are green/yellow you have the wrong p/n.

After seeing 100 for $3.00 of another kind on line and bags of 10 for $4.00 in the auto store (again other kind), yeah- I guess $14,50 seemed expensive. But such is life!

Thanks for the dimensions of the clips. I appreciate it. Do you remember where you bought them?

Sadly, the only pick-a-part yard left around here gets the vehicles that the real junk yards have stripped already. Not much but pretty empty hulks left. We used to have a bunch of good ones, which we called "climb around yards". Good fun on a Saturday afternoon!

What I was asking above was if Pulp Fiction knew where he got the ones in the photo shown in reply #3.
