The Story

373 GM "Christmas tree" push retainers in a pre-packaged assortment covering the tapered ribbed clip sizes used throughout General Motors vehicles for carpet, headliner, and interior panel attachment. Christmas tree retainers are named for their stepped, tapered profile — the ribs compress on insertion and expand to lock the clip in place, making them fast to install and resistant to vibration-induced backing out.

What's Included
  • GM Christmas tree push retainers — tapered ribbed push-in clips in multiple stem diameters and head sizes
  • Covers the sizes used for carpet retention, headliner mounting, and interior panel attachment across common GM models
  • 373 pieces total
Specifications
Fastener type Christmas tree push retainers (tapered ribbed push-in clips)
Material Nylon
Compatible makes General Motors — Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac
Application Carpet retention, headliner mounting, interior panel attachment
Total pieces 373
Supplier Auveco
Best For
  • GM-focused service and body shops — carpet pulls, headliner replacements, and interior panel work on GM vehicles use Christmas tree retainers extensively; a stocked assortment means the job doesn't stall waiting on clips
  • Fleet maintenance operations — commercial GM fleets (Silverado, Express van, Suburban) regularly need interior carpet and panel clip replacement after equipment installation and removal
  • Restoration and reconditioning shops — original Christmas tree retainers become brittle with age and often break during teardown; this assortment covers the sizes needed for GM interior restoration
  • Upholstery and auto trim shops — carpet installation and headliner replacement on GM vehicles requires a large number of Christmas tree clips in a range of sizes
Understanding Christmas Tree Retainers

Christmas tree retainers (also called fir tree clips or barbed push-in retainers) get their name from their profile: a tapered stem with multiple angled ribs that resemble the outline of a Christmas tree. Unlike smooth-stem push retainers that use an expanding head to lock in place, Christmas tree retainers use the ribs themselves — each one flexes inward on insertion and springs back against the hole wall to resist pull-out.

They're most common in applications where the clip passes through a soft material (carpet padding, foam-backed headliner material) and anchors into a sheet metal hole behind it. Common GM applications include:

  • Floor carpet — securing carpet edges and center console area carpet to the body floor
  • Headliner — attaching headliner panels and overhead console surrounds to the roof structure
  • Kick panels and lower interior trim — retaining lower A-pillar and rocker trim panels

When replacing a Christmas tree retainer, the critical dimension is the hole diameter in the sheet metal panel — the retainer stem must match the hole size to lock correctly. Need help sizing? Contact us.
