    My new prius seems like it has had a lot of the interior panels on and off before, and I'm noticing fitment issues.

    For instance, the trim on the walls in the back by the hatch dont fit tightly where they should anymore. Seems like maybe they are missing clips and sagging a little.

    Other areas like exterior panel rear wheel well the gap between the bottom of the rear quarter panel and the panel above it are not lining up, like a mising clip or bolt causing the bottom of the wheel well to flare out.

    Any ideas on how to fix these issues? can I get more clips/bolts somewhere?

    You can get the correct plastic fasteners at any Toyota dealer's parts counter.

    Thanks! Do I just bring the ones I need more of? Do you know how expensive they tend to be?

    Bring in a sample and tell them where it's from. Make sure what they give you matches what you have. They can be pricy, I bought 4 little plastic bumper clips for $10+. They are cheaper online if you need a lot
