Boot Trim Clips

Hello all,

I know there are already some threads on similar topics but I have searched and can’t find the right answer.

I had my boot trim off the other day in order to route cabling for a dash cam (definitely not for the faint hearted).

Anyway, I’ve put it back on and it’s loose particularly at the bottom end near to the boot latch. Had it off again and the clips are like below, but the plastic where they clip onto seems to have been damaged, is this normal after the trim is removed?

I ordered some clips that someone linked to in another thread but sadly they’re the wrong ones. Does anybody know where I can get the clips in the image above please?

Plus, is it worth replacing the other clips (below on the left, right ones are the ones I ordered) at the same time?

As much as possible, I've always tried to return these clips to their original shape and reused them, the first clips, I don't know about, sometimes, nowadays, these later clips are not made available as spare parts, so they only come as part of the panel - been there with my 2011 Audi S4!

Hence why they clips coming off when removing the trim has damaged the trim! Hoping someone may be able to point me in the right direction for those clips.
