Charlie,
They look like the right ones. I may still have the part #'s on some of my old invoices, or even the original GM parts boxes.
In most cases they will break when you try to remove them. I had purchased mine from the dealer many years ago, but I suppose they're still available.
Another wagon guy a while back had given me a link to a auto trim and hardware site. They seemed to carry many of the clips that even the dealer could no longer get.
I recall that you needed to buy a box of them...a little more than needed...but still worth it.

Also, be careful removing the headliner board. They too have a tendency to crumble, and getting harder to find.

yea thanks for the warning but I have already removed it and re covered it I just need the clips to finish up. I will post a thread on all the mods I did while I had it out. I put up 2 layers of insulation on the roof and filled all the holes for the roof rack while it was apart

=================================================
In back of my mind, I kind of figured you already had the headliner down. That's also the best time to fill all the roof rack holes. I welded up the roof rack holes when my headliner was down. I didn't add insulation to mine, but that's a good idea. I did my headliner so many years ago, but it could use to be done again...not that it's hanging down, but it's sun faded...besides I'm probably going to change the interior color from red to burgundy.
