Had to order some of these clips before I could put everything back together. If, when you close your door, you have a loud clanking sound, this guy is the reason. Without it (or if it's broken) the metal part on the door card just bounces on the metal prong that is supposed to go through that clip and makes a horrible racket. Part number is 51418156532. After replacing that clip and the sound deadening, the doors close like bank vaults. Think brand new off the show room floor E39 sounding.

Aways had a weird creaking noise I hear when pulling the driver door closed from the inside. I had a feeling this piece was missing and when I first dug in the glovebox I found that clip sitting in there...
