    I need a pair of the little trunk lid bumpers that mound on the underside of the edge of the lid. Mine broke. They are the push in bumpers. If anyone has a set of good ones, pls pm or answer me back. Does anyone know if a Mustang part will fit? Thanks,

    Front door slam bumpers off a Dodge Caliber. Near the door latch. :) They fit perfect on the trunk of my Maverick and look better. I forgot to order new ones with all my other rubber so I went hunting. Likely doesnt help you much unless your neighbor has a Caliber.:)
    I had a lot full of cars to look at and thats what fit perfect.

    Thanks Darren. I'll go to a Dodge dealer and see if I can buy them new.

    I have the current Ford part number for the part, they are close to the same as the original, I can find the number when I get home from work. Or it should be post on here somewhere.

    The ones that come from Ford, are smaller than the originals in diameter, but are the same thickness. They look really close to what AutoKrafters is selling. If you look up the part number for the originals, it's a hardware number, and is still current with Ford, but like I said, smaller around.
