A Pillar Clips

Hi folks, pretty simple one here.

I've been installing a hardwire kit for a dashcam and ran the cable behind the glove box and up the passenger side A pillar (RHD). The first two clips (see red in left image below and right image) are 2 stage clips which are a complete nightmare to remove, which in the end snapped. I'm looking to find a replacement for these however nothing seems to come up.

Would anyone happen to know where I could find these?

Thanks!

Agree, dealer would probably be your best bet to buy replacements. I've heard getting the A pillar trim off is a bear, so I had a VW tech do mine. You have to remove to the first detent, then there's some sort of shift and then you can remove it. It also binds up at the firewall end of the pillar. I watched and it looked to be a PITA to remove these...
