I was troubleshooting the door release last year & when I replaced the driver door card/panel I broke the clip on the lower left corner (as I face the panel)

I searched & found a replacement.
It came in a green colored plastic pouch.
Has a barcode and it says: "Jaguar door panel casing clip XJ8 98–03”
Also has the following model number: “KTD300002GEN.

I have procrastinated because I didn't wanna take the whole door card off again. Today I decided to see if I could replace it by just pulling the loose lower outside corner and the answer is yes… Almost..
My replacement clip is significantly smaller than my old damaged one!

I used my digital caliper and measured my new clip and the circular top is 19.4 mm O.D..

My old semi oval shaped bad clip is 21.4 mm wide & 22.7 mm long O.D.

The slot on my new clip is much too small to slide onto the white, round, plastic, ‘button’ piece on the door. I tried forcing it but not even close.

Searching I see only clips that look like the new one I bought that is too small.

Found an eBay listing for 30X Door Panel Fastener Clip Stud Fits For Jaguar Xj8 XJR 1998 1999 2000-2003

But it shows top = 13.4 mm O.D. Even smaller than my new clip!

I assumed all the door clips around the edges of the door card were the same size. Only the huge one in the center was much larger & completely different.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Those are a 2 part clip. The pin part you show fits into a plastic part in the door.




But I see several options? I don't have your last 6 digits of the cars VIN but I think they did not change over time?




Maybe you need the KTD300003 part number since the KTD300002 is not matching your car?
I don't know what "other" means either?

I know all the clips are basically 2 parts
In your 1st image I am talking only about part number 4.
Part 5 is on the door frame, not the door card/panel.
I have no doubt that 4 will fit into 5 on my car.
The issue is how to secure part 4 to my door card.

The top or ‘head’ of part 4 seen on the L in your image, must securely attach to a white plastic ‘button’ on my door card.
The slot in my part 4 is much too small.

 

Found eBay & it looks like my old part!

You may be onto the solution!

I will try to find other options for KTD300003 in case it still does not fit or I have more than the single broken clip.

But here is another listing (#KTD300003) where the photo is the same too small part

Yes that was my point. I can't explain what "other" means in the parts listing. But it would be worth a try to see if that other number does work or not.
They are close so hard to tell what will work without having it in your hand.

Part # 4, the male, is held in cut-out slots in the door card; you fit 4s to the door card, align it to #5s, punch it home.

 

I know.

My new part #4 & all the ones linked are too small. Cannot find a part #4 like my old damaged one.
My old semi oval shaped bad clip is 21.4 mm wide & 22.7 mm long O.D
my new clip and the circular top is 19.4 mm O.D..

I've seem measurements of < 19.4 for male clips for sale on ebay
