My passenger side is coming off- the metal retaining springs look like they are rusting away. Where can I get a new one and how much??

Default I just replaced all four of mine.

On my 98.5, the metal rails began to rust and you could just peel them off. I got them through my dealer for $25-30 each. (The fronts are closer to $30 since they are longer) The new ones also don't have any metal on them so this shouldn't happen again. I also ordered the plastic clips, but didn't need to replace any of them. The hardest part of installing them was getting the old screw out of the front part of each. (On the door hinge side of each one) I had to drill one out and get an M4 screw from the hardware store to replace it.) Once I got the screws out, it took less then 5 mins per door to replace.
Good luck!
