Looking for the Metal Spike Band for one of my new door panels. I only need the two sides. Four of the six spikes that hold the door in place on mine are broken off.

I also need four of the female grommets that the spikes press into. I received the female grommets when I purchased the new door panels, but they are incorrect; the shape is the same but the opening is too wide for the spikes.

I am hoping to find these original parts before having to use the metal clips they give you.

I listed them in another thread awhile back. Look down the thread to reply #9. ultra-hi-comp.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=swapmeet&thread=94&page=1

Thanks for the info. I never heard of this place, and it never showed up an any google search I have done.

I looked at the grommets in their catalog (part 2146J GM) and they look like the ones I received with my door panels. The outer shape is correct but the inside opening is too wide for the small spikes that our doors use. The original grommets have a very small opening (sides nearly touching), which allows the small spikes to hold tight.

I have more information on this in the Door Panel Installation thread in the tech section.
